In my home network I have DHCP distributing fixed IP addresses. Now
I want to do this with the Opensolaris (snv_131) DHCP server. I
think I have the general DHCP setup okay, including a macro for the
general settings and one for the network (10.0.0.0).

According to the System Administration Guide and other sources, I
should do this to add a fixed address for the specified MAC address:

pntadm -A 10.0.0.24 -f MANUAL -i 010008544255e7 -m 10.0.0.0 -y 10.0.0.0

(use this address, flag for manually set, id marked as Ethernet
address, use macro for 10.0.0.0, very its existence, on network
10.0.0.0)

But I always get the error message

    pntadm: The client id is not a valid client id.

How is it not? I use it just like in the example in the System
Administration Guide. Any variations of the command did not help, so
I guess it is really the format of the client id that is the
stumbling block here, although I *think* I have it right. The manual
page pntadm(1M) is no help. Any ideas?
