[ale] DHCP Question

[Mike Murphy]

I do it the second way, but that's because I've wanted to give each 
interface a different hostname (which I have dhcp pulling from dns).

I'm not sure you can declare the same host twice with the same name, so 
its likely that the first way is the right way to do this the way you 
want to, but there is only one good way to find out ;-)
