Judd,
This is not a stupid question. I'm not sure if FC uses dhclient or
dhcpcd. If it's dhclient, you can use a "supersede" statement in
dhclient.conf

<SNIP>
supersede [ option declaration ] ;

If for some option the client should always use a locally-configured
value or values rather than whatever is supplied by the server, these
values can be defined in the supersede statement.
</SNIP>

For example:
supersede host-name "foo";
supersede domain-name "bar.com";

If FC uses dhcpcd, make sure your networking scripts are not passing the
-H switch to it.

Either way see `man dhclient` or `man dhcpcd` for more details.

Sorry I can't be more specific, but I do not use Fedora.
