Trying to configure my DHCP server to dish out a fixed address to my
squeezebox turned out to be a little less trivial than I expected.

The label on the unit and the MAC address received over the wireless
network is 00:04:20:05:ae:0a.  However, inside the DHCP discover
messages sent by the squeezebox2 the "Client MAC address" is:
20:04:b4:00:00:0c.

For a full packet dump see:

Where's this client MAC address from?  Any insights appreciated?

It means I have to put this address in dhcpd.conf rather than the one I
would have expected.
