[Wlug] Accessing Host Names

I am trying to access the use SSH using host names instead of using the raw IP address. I am currently using DCHP to connect to an inexpensive Linksys router and I can see the host names and their IP address when I view the connections list. If the machine name (ie CLYDE) is not the host name, please correct me. Is there some way to extract this information? If so, how? Do I need to run bind to be able to use the host names in place of IP addresses? Any help would be appreciated. -- kstratton@fastmail.us
