Home Network, with DHCP assigned IP addresses. The XP machines' names show up in the router display screen (e.g., "family" or Dell"), but all the Macs simply show up as dotted quads ( 2 iMacs running 10.4.11, and one MacBook with 10.5). I'd like the Macs to be identified by name, like their Windows counterparts, so I can keep track of what machines are on the network.

Is this possible? It seems if Windows can do it, OS X should be able to as well. Thanks in advance!
