Well, I guess I have to run SAMBA too though, no ?
I now have in /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1       localhost            buggz1
192.168.0.1     buggz1.buggz.net     buggz1
192.168.0.2     buggz2.buggz.net     buggz2
192.168.0.3     buggz3.buggz.net     buggz3
192.168.0.4     buggz4.buggz.net     buggz4
192.168.0.5     buggz5.buggz.net     juneed
192.168.0.6     buggz6.buggz.net     juneed
192.168.0.7     buggz7.buggz.net     juneed

And in /etc/dhcpd.conf
option domain-name "exchange.buggz.net";
allow unknown-clients;

shared-network EXCHANGE {
         subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.224 {
           range 192.168.0.5  192.168.0.7;
         }
       }
