[TriLUG] DHCP/DNS

I'm using a static IP for the DNS server, but what about the other machines.
I don't know their IP addresses when I'm setting up the DNS. If I make them
static, for some reason, I can't seem to get out onto the internet.

My DLnk 713P does allow for static IP assignments based on NIC address.
What model DLink do you have? it may or may not support static IP
assignments.

After that, it's just a matter of DNS setup...
