Ah, check out www.vix.com, Paul Vixies' site. The Internet Software
Consortium (Maintainers of INN and BIND) also have a DHCP server
in the works. If it is not on the home page, follow the ISC link.
I have not used this software, but it does BOOTP+DHCP - I guess
in the end they might well support all the bits for dynamic
naming.
Cheers,
Neil
