I had a reason for using the 127 addresses but I forget what it was. Shouldn't DHCP take care of all that? My DHCP server is set to assign IP addresses starting with 192.168.1.100 and a maximum of 27 addresses. (subnet mask 255.255.255.128) How does DHCP deal with host names?
No, dhcp sets the IPs, and it can communicate with the name server to tell it the changes. It is not trivial. It is easier to give your machines fixed IPs and names. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
