maybe you should clarify your example then -- showing who are
the client(s), firewall and DHCP server, where do you
install the ipfw rules (client, firewall, dhcp server ?),
and how often does the DHCP server
force a change of address to the clients (which is
kind of bad because existing connections will have a hard
time during the switchover, and also dns lookups...)

The ip-address the client receives can change in time but the hostname do not. The ipfw rules however keep the old values resulting in a rules that do not apply.
