Subject: [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.
