Ahh. I should have mentioned that I run DNS for the LAN too, so you can use
name lookups for anything around you, therefore, even the xterm will use it.

Example simple config:
option domain-name "domain.com";
option domain-name-servers ns1.domain.com;
option routers gw.domain.com;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
default-lease-time 43200;
max-lease-time 86400;
subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
range 192.168.0.230 192.168.0.250;
option broadcast-address 192.168.0.255;
}
host somehost {
hardware ethernet AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF;
fixed-address somehost.domain.com;
}
