I'm no expert, but I put the MAC addresses of my machines in dhcpd.conf, eg
---------------------------------------------------
subnet 192.168.2.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
authoritative;
option routers 192.168.2.2;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
option nis-domain "gayleard.com";
option domain-name "gayleard.com";
option domain-name-servers 159.134.237.6,159.134.248.17;
range dynamic-bootp 192.168.2.128 192.168.2.254;
default-lease-time 21600;
max-lease-time 43200;
host alfred {
hardware ethernet 00:40:F4:6E:07:A1;
fixed-address 192.168.2.1;
}
host helen {
hardware ethernet 00:40:F4:4D:60:8A;
}
...
}
---------------------------------------------------
But maybe this is not what you want?
I agree the IP addresses given to your machines are surprising ...
