I have dhcp-2.0.5 running on freebsd 4.2, 
I have read the documentation and numerous sample
configurations, I am not sure if it is possible
to do what I wish, I wish for a machine to automatically
grab an ip address reserved for it, but only
by providing its name.    

so for instance in my current configuration I say:

host criadillas {
        hardware ethernet 00:a0:cc:3b:21:3d;
		fixed-address 10.10.32.236;
}



I would like to just be able to say "my host is criadillas"
instead of having to provide a mac address.

Is this possible?

thanks for any help.
