[Dnsmasq-discuss] dhcp-host=hostnameonly does not work

Oops - I had "bind-interfaces" instead of "bind-dynamic", and DHCPv6 was not listening.

Apparently, the ether address *does* associate with an IPv6 address in /etc/hosts when using the hostname in /etc/ethers, so that actually works.  But then, "dhcp-host=..." would still be needed to use the client DUID instead of the ether address.
