I'm not an authority on this, but I know that it is the username of the
person used to authenticate with.

But I wonder if you are asking the question whether it should be the
hostname of the PC.
If that's your question, you could easily code it yourself, but you run the
risk of some bad DNS name showing up. (I'm in a college environment also,
they use some pretty nasty computer names in the dorms)

Hope I helped.

Subject: NetReg: lease file

I have a quick question here. The netreg server is up and running. I
notice in my dhcpd.conf file that when someone registers that the line shows
as...

host username { hardware address .... etc

my question is... should that be the username that the person used to
authenticate with or should that be the hostname of the PC they
authenticated from?

Thanks for any insight.
