Hi Aaron,

It's kind of a hidden feature...
You can use the "Find Mac" to search for anything in dhcpd.conf.

for example you can search for everyone that registered today by
querying for 19990825 or search for everyone using win98.

be careful though, some platforms report "Win95" and some report
"Windows 95"...searching for just "Win" might grab an actual user. I
don't know if I will fix this...most likely not.

You are welcome to add that functionality and I will add it in so
everyone can use it.
