It works...I've waffled back and forth with several groups of non-student users who need to be exempted from the system, and this is one of the ways I've handled it in the past. No problems.

Subject: NetReg: Static IP addresses
We are using NetReg to handle registering computers on our student network
and it has been working great for us.
I was wondering if it is possible to assign static addresses using NetReg
to specific computers. These computers are administrative computers that
need to be on the residential network. We do not want the IP addresses
changing on these computers. We also want to have administrative network
printers on the residential side as well. We assign the addresses manually
through the printer configuration but do not want to take the chance of the
dhcp server leasing out that IP to a student computer.
An "I think this will work" solution that I am trying is to add:
fixed-address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx;
to the host entry in the dhcpd.conf.new file. Has anyone else tried
this? Can anyone say for sure if this will work or not?
Any help would be appreciated.
