Comment:

 dhcpd does not appear to have *any* compile-time options. I guess they
 just figured that it would only get run on big server-type machines.

 dnsmasq claims to be "a lightweight DNS and DHCP server", and I know it's
 used in things like OpenWRT, so it may be a better fit. I can try hacking
 up a config file equivalent to our ISC dhcpd one.

 dcbw: cc:ing you since you know things about networking and may have
 comments
