find out ip address for the new machine #3

It works only in case dnsmasq is used with the libvirt (by default for Fedora systems). In case it finds out the ip address it writes this address into /etc/hosts (unless there is already a record for that hostname).

I understand it's not a general solution but it works for me so I want to share it with others :)

I like this one too, but it has few drawbacks. I dont use NAT for my networking, so it is not possible to use this script (my DHCP is ADSL box). So I would recommend to either create a new option for determining IP, or maybe to use it only when NAT is used.

Let me merge that and fix it later on.
