Hi,

I just setup a DHCP server on the 'main' box of our small LAN.
Unfortunately, there's no DSL here, so we all share a dialup connection via
IP Masquerading.

Up until now, every machine had a static configuration, but I wanted to do
things more elegantly, so I opted for DHCP. One small problem remains,
though.

The main machine is connected OK (via pon). And all of the clients can ping
ip addresses on the internet. Only name resolution fails for the clients.

Sure, I could manually add a DNS entry (213.36.80.1, that's Tiscali's
primary DNS server) to every client's /etc/resolv.conf. Only I thought that
there _must_ be some way to configure it centrally on the main box'
dhcpd.conf.

I waded through the DHCP docs, but couldn't succeed in setting it up. (I
asked on irc.debian.org#debian after that, but got only a curt RTFM...))

Any ideas?
