   One method that I have used to solve this problem is to have our
net adminintrator create "permanent" fictional machines. This way, when
I need to put test equipment on the net, all I do is configure the machine
with an IP address and a name from the list of what I can use, and away
the machine goes, including having the DNS recognize it.
