Tutorial: Set up a DHCP server to manage IP addresses

This tutorial is best suited for readers with moderate UNIX or Linux familiarity and experience with basic IP networking concepts. The author used Fedora Core 1 as the Linux distribution, but other Linux distributions or UNIX variants, such as AIX, Solaris, or HP-UX, would also work for the setup described in the tutorial. The ISC software is free: you can get a precompiled version (via RPM, for example) from your Linux vendor's FTP mirror, or you can download the source from the Internet Systems Consortium.
