<br>
You don't need to set your own tags at all, just use the "known" tag,
which will be set whenever a dhcp-host matches the MAC address.
<br>
<br>
Then do
<br>
<br>
dhcp-range=<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="net:known,192.168.1.101,192.168.1.120,4h">net:known,192.168.1.101,192.168.1.120,4h</a>
<br>
dhcp-range=<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="net:#known,192.168.1.161,192.168.1.174,4h">net:#known,192.168.1.161,192.168.1.174,4h</a>
<br>
<br>
That way, 192.168.1.101... will only be used when the MAC address is
known, and 192.168.1.161... will only be used when the MAC address is
not known.
<br>
<br>
<br>
It's important to understand the two uses of tags in dhcp-range
<br>
<br>
dhcp-range=<tag>,......
<br>
<br>
will _set_ the tag if that range is used.
<br>
<br>
dhcp-range=<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="net:tag">net:tag</a>,.......
<br>
<br>
will _use_ the range if the tag is set.

Now I get it... thank you...<br>
<div class="moz-text-plain" wrap="true" graphical-quote="true"
style="font-family: -moz-fixed; font-size: 12px;" lang="x-western"><br>
</div>
now, a couple of related questions... <br>
<br>
1) does "dhcp-range" allow me to match more than one tag? or to match
one (or more) and set another one?<br>
<br>
2) when I write:<br>
<div class="moz-text-plain" wrap="true" graphical-quote="true"
style="font-family: -moz-fixed; font-size: 12px;" lang="x-western">

I am <b>setting</b> (and not trying to <b><i>match</i></b>) the tag
"tagIKnowYou" for these hosts, am I?<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanx a lot, Simon, for your help, and for a truly amazing piece of
software that let me finally get rid of ISC's awful servers...<br>
