Why not just use the MAC Address and have dhcp always assign that machine the
same address. That way all other settings from dhcp will be applied to the
machine every time and changes to the settings applied by dhcp will also be
picked up by that machine. This method has been working for me for several
years now on one of my servers.
Just add the following to the end of the /etc/dhcpd.conf and you are away:
host computername{
hardware ethernet 00:00:00:00:00:00;
fixed-address 192.168.x.x;
}
Don't forget to change the relevant variables to suit your network first.
Sorry, I clicked sent too early. I should have added the useful information
first.

I guess so, but I would rather not 'hard wire' anything into the configuration.
But I may end up doing so!

I understand that there are security issues regarding UPnP. I don't know much
about security, so I feel I need to be ultra cautious. I'm acutely aware that
one wrong line in the Shorewall rules could blow the door wide open on my
firewall!
