"known clients" means that there is a host entry in your dhcpd.conf
file. After you boot your 98 machine and get an IP from the unknown
pool, this does not mean that your client is now "known".
You would have to put an entry like this in dhcpd.conf, and then
restart dhcpd for the machine to get a number from the known pool:
host jarjar { hardware ethernet 00:aa:00:b6:46:70; }

Ted, thank you for finally making this public knowledge. Hopefully
this will cut down on the "is there an archive for this list?"
questions. :-)
