does the router have the ability to assign certain host numbers to certain mac addresses? i mean, of couse it has the ability, but can you configure how it assigns them (i've never used a linksys)? if so you could do that and then write the same information into /etc/hosts. not pretty, but it worked for my very static lan. or, you could take the holistic approach: i'm probably going to be given the same address i was given last time, for now till the end of time, so it will all work out if i just write that in /etc/hosts! :) j. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
