I have a wireless home network with an 802.11B router which assigns

what method is appropriate to access one fbsd box from another when
I don't actually know the IP which has been assigned to any given
box.
May sound rookie, but presently I go to each box and determine it's
IP directly and then I "know" the IP (at least for this session).
There has gotta be a better way.

suggestions please.
