[KLUG Members] DHCP / SAMBA

[Bill]

Folks, this is a two-pronged question (hold off on the barbs, 
okay? :-))

How do I feed addresses assigned by DHCP to SAMBA so that SAMBA 
(on my Linux box) can find my wifes Win98 box?

How do I use addresses generated by DHCP to connect my two Linux 
boxes (nfs / ssh?)

I know I can assign static ip's within the range my router will 
allow, but I want to "set it and forget it" so as to make future 
additions to the stable relatively painless. DHCP seems the way 
to go on that. I have Rod Smiths book "Linux: Networking for 
Your Office" but, if he covers this material, I am overlooking 
it.

Basically I am set up like this:

Machine	OS		Scope
a.genesis.com	Mdk 8.0		Workstation (manage b.genesis / add 						
				content to website / databases; general surfing & email)
b.genesis.com	Mdk 8.0		Server (NFS, SMB, SSH, HTTPD, PHP, 
				Postgresql, Mysql)
c.genesis.com	Win98		Workstation (add content to website / 						
				databases; general surfing & email) Using ZoneAlarm and 					
				Norton Internet Security Family Edition (came free with the 	
				modem).
Linksys BEFSR81 Router tied to a cable modem. All computers have 
10/100 nics and can, once I puzzle out which computer has what 
address, ping each other. I have full CD's for all OS's and can 
compile stuff if a gun is pointed directly at my head. :-)
