Why, Yes. I have used the enhanced version of the CMU BOOTP server which
supports DHCP request from Win311+Win95 clients. I am afraid that
I can't remember where I got it from orginally but it shouldn't be hard
to find. And I am certain that it is not the only one bootp/DHCP server
for Linux.
The bootp/dhcp works just fine. Win95 machines are ok with it and Win311
machines have to use the MS TCPIP32b-package. The a-package doesn't work
well.
Hope this helps,
Mika
