Dear Sudev:

Thanks!

I thought that it being identified by its NIC, and then as 192.168.1.79 
would be sufficient to make the numeric portion of [ws079] the link 
between the two. How does one enter the hostname in the dhcpd.conf?

Krishna an inline bottom posting would work much better ;-)

[SNIP]

In the section below of lts.conf you are giving a host name ws079

But you are not defining the host name in dhcpd.conf above. You neet
to add a line  like within the curly brackets for each host:

option host-name "test1";

I hope this should solve the problem.
