With Windows clients if you give the machine a NetBIOS name and then join it to a workgroup / domain, then clients should see each others with those names in Windows Network Neighborhood. But you want the NetBIOS name to be also the DNS name of the box, yes? As far as I know the Win2000 DNS server runs a service which allows clients to register their names to it dynamically when online. I do not know if this possible with bind / other open source DNS implementations. I'd like to hear about solutions for this too, as this is one of the reasons I'm using static addresses / names and not DHCP.
