dhcp-host doesn't work for me. Geoff Back earlier in the thread also
mentioned dhcp-host not working for him either.

I don't think target full or short name matters. I always use full domain
names in target, as mentioned earlier in this thread, but I just tried
short hostname only, but it didn't make a difference.
