[Dnsmasq-discuss] dhcp-host: Use hostname instead of ip?

Hi,

in isc-dhcp it is possible to specify the fixed-address of a dhcp host
via its hostname and have the dhcp server resolve this upon a dhcp
request, so the only place IP addresses are stored is in the dns. I'm
not using the dnsmasq dns server (-p 0). Am I right that this is not
possible when using dnsmasq? I tried using

dhcp-host <mac-address>,my.full.qualified.hostname

but this seems to have other semantics.

Yours
Karsten
