man dhcpcd

You can change /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup

and change the dhcpcd line to:

dhcpcd -h foo

When the host gets a dynamic IP address, the DHCP server registers
foo.company.com with the DNS. It may take a few minutes to propagate to
DNS, but it eventually works.

Make sure that you use a _very_ recent version of dhcpcd.
