Well, the update requests could ALSO come from the dhcp server itself. Whenever a DHCP request arrives on the DHCP server it could return an IP address and a hostname to the DHCP client, PLUS it (the DHCP server) could register this name with the nameserver. I don't know whether this actually WORKS this way, but at least it COULD work this way, couldn't it?! -- Verkaufe Original-BMW-Raeder: L I N U X .~. http://adsl-bergs.rz.rwth-aachen.de/~rabe The Choice /V\ of a GNU /( )\ Generation ^^-^^
