However things are being logged to log files, using IPs, and not machine
names.
Both auth and syslog have IP entries which are pretty useless to me with
things being on a DHCP network [which I also have no control over].
DNS and DHCP on the same box, so that (possibly?) DHCP can update
DNS with device names? Otherwise, how do you map name to IP?
Another way would be to have the DHCP server to log MAC-IP-timestamp
tuples, load it into some tool (whether it be a DBMS, spreadsheet or
Python/Perl/etc list) and use that to derive what you need to know.
