I am running a CentOS PXE/webserver and would like to use a domain name such as fresh.srv instead of typing in the IP address to access the website on a client computer. Is this possible with out running a local DNS server? Thank you!

Why do you not want a local DNS server? DNS is generally The Right Way to handle this... – voretaq7 Sep 05 '13 at 17:14

Yes, use the hosts file.
Edit /etc/hostson the client, and add a line like:
192.168.10.10 fresh.srv
...of course replacing that IP address with the IP of your server.
