It's strange... Now it suddenly works. Maybe I really got the dhcpd 
config wrong?

Anyway, this is the part for this host in my dhcpd.conf now:

host demohost {
                hardware ethernet 00:03:23:af:92:f6;
                fixed-address 192.168.1.250;
                option host-name "demohost.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx";
               }

Maybe I really forgot the "option" keyword...

Thanks everyone!
