Ok I had this:
ddns-update-style interim;
ignore client-updates;

subnet 192.168.71.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {

# --- default gateway
        option routers                  192.168.71.1;
        option subnet-mask              255.255.255.0;

        option domain-name              "coyote.den";
        option domain-name-servers      192.168.71.1;

        option time-offset              -18000; # Eastern Standard Time
#       option ntp-servers              192.168.1.1;

        range dynamic-bootp 192.168.71.101 192.168.71.115;
        default-lease-time 21600;
        max-lease-time 43200;

        # we want the nameserver to appear at a fixed address
        host ns {
                next-server gene.coyote.den;
                hardware ethernet 00:04:4B:5D:EB:7D;
                fixed-address 192.168.71.1;
        }
}
Which may not be correct in itself :( but it worked.
And I've added this below that:
group {
        # we want the lappy at a fixed address too
        host diablo {
                hardware ethernet 00:14:A5:75:32:C9;
                fixed address 192.168.71.5;
        }
}

But a network restart on the lappy is still getting 192.168.71.102?


You did restart the dhcp server, right?
