[comp.protocols.tcp-ip.domains] laptop Internet addresses.

It seems to me that there is no existing standard protocol for dynamic
assignment of internet addresses to domain names.  It would solve the
problem nicely.  At work, our Macintoshes use MacTCP and a Gatorbox to
connect to our local internet, and when each Mac starts up its TCP/IP
software it is assigned an IP address by the Gatorbox.  To work in
general on the Real Internet, this address assignment would have to be
integrated into the DNS.
