Right...it doesn't return the machine name for any of my client machines
(didn't expect it too on the DHCP boxes, but thought it might on the two
static boxes).  For the two static machines, it returns the Charter
(cable connection) and BellSouth (DSL connection) names, not my actual
machine name...gateway (returns cable-68-114-97-96.sli.la.charter.com)
 for the Charter connection and web01 (returns
adsl-068-209-144-233.sip.msy.bellsouth.net) for the BellSouth.
