Thanks Ernest,
Correct me if my interpretation of the conf below is wrong, but I think it
declares hosts 1, 2 ...(to whichever number I may feel like) along with their
MAC addresses after which it allows them to pick RANDOM ip addresses from a
pool.
This will not work in my case because it is hosts with known MAC addresses
that have their ip addresses fixed and any other to pick a random ip address
from a pool.
My problem now is that I want to be ban some MAC addresses from picking an IP
address completely!
