DNS for workstations using DHCP



Hai,

My workstations currently have static IP adresses, and I'm planning to
change this to a DHCP protocol.
I already have a DHCP daemon running on my unix box witch gives IP address
in the range
of 32..254 (CLASS C network). I use 1..32 for the current workstations
(staticly assigned).

On my unix box I have a hosts file to name al my workstations (running
Win95) so I can ping CP6 (CP6 is the name of  one of my workstations)
succesfully.

If I use DHCP, I cant to PIN CP6 anymore because my IP is dynamic.

My questions is can I use bind to solve my problmen?

Is it posible to assign IP addresses to workstations using a look up table.
So CP6 will always get's 192.168.1.6 as his IP address?

Best Regards,
Ries van Twisk
