Put this line somewhere in the beginning of /etc/dhcpd.conf:
use-host-decl-names on;
Then you make one section for each host in your network like this:
host YourFavouriteHostname {
hardware ethernet xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx;
### in cas you need this:
# fixed-address 10.0.0.2;
}
Then the host with the specified mac address will be configured with
hostname "YourFavouriteHostname".
