If it's stock dnsmasq, you can probably provide a mapping of MAC address to hostname in /etc/ethers, and then IP address to hostname in /etc/hosts. If you do that, make sure that you stop dnsmasq, then remove any "wrong" leases from /tmp/dhcp.leases, then restart it. But if it's all wrapped up in ipcop, you'll have to get someone else to help ... :-) -jim
