@Home will serve only DHCP clients, and the client needs to have certain
hostname.  The hostname is used to do DHCP lease authentication.  You should
have the name of the client as provided by the installer.  Use that and use
a DHCP client on the Linux box, it should work...  Oh, you are only allowed
one IP per account, unless you buy additional IPs.
