I guess I'll have to play with this later when I have more time. It
looks like I have to figure out the config files in /etc/ssh. Will my
router reassign the ip addresses when I turn the machines on and off ?

No idea how you have which equipment set to what setting/values.

If I could set the router for fixed ip addressing, that is what I
would do. If not, I would create scripts to maintain /etc/hosts.

If so, the /etc files will need to be changed constantly I take it ?

Yep, I created /etc/dhclient-exit-hooks to maintain ip numbers in my
config files on my Mandriva Linux dhcp connection with my cable modem.

Can I use the real ip addresses instead ?

Thought I mentioned that you ping using ip addresses in my last post.
