I always think it odd that a router that issues hostnames and IP addresses to hosts can't spit the same information out when given a DNS query. But I've assumed that setting it up to do so would involve no work; the work is in typing the information into the DHCP pages. So if you have a DNS-serving router, it would seem defeatest to then have to maintain /etc/hosts files, and it just hides the problem which, thankfully, has now been found. Cheers, David.
