Re: [lwip-users]Hostname for DHCP - where is it specified?

[Nicolas Pinault]

 Hi,

Adding netbios name management is easy.
Just add netbios.c and netbios.h to your source files and call netbios_init() 
during initialisation.
Be careful that netbios name must be in uppercase letters.
You can find netbios.c and netbios.h in lwip/contrib/apps/netbios

Regards,
Nicolas
