Hi All,
I'm setting up a DHCP server to give out specific ip addresses to certain hosts based on MAC address. However, some machines, usually laptops (one wireless, one wired), have 2 NICs and 2 MAC addresses. Hoever, the machine can only have one host name in DNS. Can I assign the same IP address to multiple MAC addresses? ( The answer is no, but I'm looking forward to the creative suggestions to dealing with this sort of issue :-)
TIA,
Kenny
