Hi there,
I run DHCP 3.0pl2, and sending hostnames to known clients works just fine
using these configuration options:
===
use-host-decl-names on;
host somehost {
hardware ethernet 00:11:22:33:44:55;
fixed-address 123.123.123.123;
}
===
However, now I would like to have a range for guest computers with
dynamically assigned IP addresses out of a pool:
===
subnet 123.123.123.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
pool {
range 123.123.123.200 123.123.123.210;
allow unknown clients;
}
===
Unknown clients get their IP out of that range, however, I also would like
to send them (i.e. the clients) a hostname via DHCP as well, e.g. guest10.
Is there any option to do so? I already tried out various configuration
options, but as soon as there is no fixed ethernet address assigned, it
seems no host name gets send out.
Any ideas?
Thanks a lot!
Florian
