Hi all! I have a network of over a hundred machines in which we are using a DHCP server on Debian GNU/Linux Lenny. But the dhcpd.conf file is monolithic and unwieldy. Thanks in advance for your replies.
I've been thinking about a similar problem & what I'd like to do would possibly require the DHCP server use a database back-end instead of a flat file. What I would like is for it to automatically give each new client an IP address and then enter that address as a static entry, every time a known client requests an IP address it would update a "last seen" field so that if it runs out of address space it would overwrite the MAC address of the entry with the oldest "last seen" field.
