Greetings;

My local home network runs with most of its machines having fixed addresses, referenced in their host files.

But I do have a dhcp server setup for when ever my lappy is powered up and logs in thru a wap11 from its builtin broadcom radio.

How can I rig my dns lookups so that I can still ssh into this lappy by its name, diablo.coyote.den when its given a dynamic address by dhcpd? As it is, I have to goto the lappy and run an ifconfig to find its address and ssh to that. Cumbersome.

Might be easier to have your DHCP server assign your laptop the same address every time. That's what I do on my home network.
