DNS

["David L. Martin" <dlmarti@njcc.com>]

I just got dhcp setup on my local network.
The reason I did this is because I frequently have transient computers
coming through the house (ie. laptops, friends, etc).
This works great, but I need a local network DNS.
I want to be able to talk to machines on the local network without
refering to them by ip#.
What is the proper way to go about this.

What may make this easier is that no machine except the main server has
access to the internet and it doesn't have forwarding enabled.
I would like the main machine to handle the DNS request, but I don't want
confusion with "real" DNS requests.
