I don't agree. If I used dhcp and my machine not added to
/lib/ndb/local, I got an error message and I had to run "ndb/dns -r"
from command line.

> why the resistance to putting your machine into /lib/ndb/local?

I want to have (if possible) only 1 place where I define IP address assignment.
(+ dns, router, and in case of Plan9 fs+auth server)
So if i need to change something, I don't need to meditate where else
should I go.
But maybe in future I will find some reason to make my /lib/ndb/local
more accurate.
I just look around and I love playing with Plan9.
