I agree, you've mixed your terms up.  The only way to specify a hostname (for 
the purpose of DNS resolution) is to put specific host entries into dhcpd.conf 
as a previous post suggested.  I have over 130 separate host entries.

In the subnet declaration you can specify less machine specific details EG:

subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
 authoritative;
# filename "/vmlinuz-2.4.21-05";
# option root-path "/exports/root-dirs/%s";
 option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
 option broadcast-address 192.168.1.255;
 option routers 192.168.1.254;
 option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
 option domain-name "mydomain.co.nz";
 option nis-domain "mydomain.co.nz";
# next-server 192.168.1.190;
        host pc1
                hardware ethernet 00:50:fc:74:b8:d3;
                fixed-address 192.168.1.1;
        }
        host pc2 {
                hardware ethernet 00:50:fc:74:b8:d3;
                fixed-address 192.168.1.2;
        }
}

The commented out bits are what you would need if you were network booting the 
clients.

Good luck,
Michael.
