dnsmasq

I would like to assign local domain names to the computers on my network
based on their MAC address and thereore automatically have all my local
domains named as part of DHCP. I have two linux systems under a WRT54G
router, one wirelessly connected via a Netgear wg311v3 card and the
other via wire.

I am considering running dnsmasq for this task on the wired
linux box. However, I am wondering two things:

1. Does wlan0 (Netgear card) have a unique MAC address?
2. Will the WRT54G pass dhcp requests from the wireless
network on to the wired network when its DHCP mode is turned
off?

Any help would be wonderful. Thanks!
