Nope, you got the idea, but... Maybe I forgot to include a few details
which make a little tougher - I don't admin the DNS server; I can't add
static, permanent entries on the server side.  I need to be able to add
these entries remotely and preferably using a Fedora-standard way (not
writing my own script to do it).

I know when you're using DHCP there are some lines you can specify in
the ifcfg-eth* files to update the DNS.  Is there an equivalent when
using static IPs?
