It is the job of the dhcp server to assign them IP numbers.

But that doesn't guarantee that a given named machine will get the same IP each time which is what the OP wanted.

Why don't you just map MAC addresses to IPs? isc-dhcpd can certainly do that.
1. Because it's been easy this way so far. I had looked into some kind of NIS or LDAP setup when I set it up. I had not heard of isc-dhcp until you mentioned it.

2.  It doesn't look like my DSL router can do LAN MAC address mapping.
