[kwlug disc.] DHCP registering to DNS?

[Unsolicited at gto.net]

A question asked of me tonight that I don't quite have the answer to,
perhaps the list will.

Windows has dynamic DNS (let alone Active Directory), where DHCP handing out
an address will have DHCP register the new name/ip pair to the DNS server.

Under GNU/Linux one can fire up a DHCP server, and a DNS server, but where
in these is the sweet spot for having it do the same magic?

[And remind me ... what does one use to see the list of hosts on the local
network? Browse in Konqueror?]

(The question actually posed was: running DHCP and DNS on Linux, even though
his Windows hosts were getting a DHCP address, they don't see all the
machines on the network listed. I think he was saying the Windows side, but
I suspect it was both. I believe NetBIOS is still running on the Windows
side, but I don't believe he has a WINS server.)
