David,
You can easily set DHCP reservations as long as you have the MAC address of the
devices. AstLinux supports that nicely.
Network Tab --> Configure DNS Hosts.
Enter your information and dnsmasq will handle it from there.

I thought so. Its going to be a headache... I have 20+ devices with hardcoded
IP's in the 192.168.1.xx subnet... and yes, these are things that I don't want
to be on DHCP, like printers, cameras, wireless access points, NAS server, VoIP
to Analog, etc. Maybe there are a couple of things I could switch to DHCP, but
still a lot left. Yuk.

David,
Yes, it would be a great idea to use something other than
192.168.0.0/24<http://192.168.0.0/24> or 192.168.1.0/24<http://192.168.1.0/24>.
I have a scheme where each of my clients gets a different subnet (unless they
had something previously configured). Figure when I run out of subnets, I'll
have bigger problems ;)

Now that I have OpenVPN running, it occurs to me that I might run into a
problem. If I am at a friends house whose local network is also 192.168.1.xx
and my network at home is 192.168.1.xx then the OpenVPN client would get
confused/would not know what to do. Right?
If this is the case, and as 192.168.1.xx is a very common subnet -- being the
default for a lot of consumer routers, then it would make sense for me to
change my home network to something a little more obscure like 192.168.yy.xx
where yy is a random number in the, oh lets say 128 to 255 range. Or even take
it into the 10.xx.yy.zz subnet?
Thoughts?
