Gotcha. What your want is to setup a DHCP reservation.
I don't know how you do it in Yast, but I believe you can doing it by editing dhcpd.conf. Try appending the following to it:
host yourhostname
{
hardware ethernet 00:50:da:de:3a:e4;
fixed-address 192.168.200.10;
}
Replace the series of numbers and colons on the hardware Ethernet line the Mac address your trying to create a reservation for. Then replace the ip address with the reserved address.
Restart dhcpd. Typing: rcdhcpd at the cl should do it for you.
Good luck.

what i wanted is for a specific client (based on mac
address) to get a specific ip address everytime it
request for an ip address from the dhcp server.

I'm not sure I understand your question. Are you talking about assigning a specific lease length using the DHCP server for clients you provide addresses for. Or are you trying to get your client to use a certain leases of a certain length?
