clarify.


where do you want to set this dynamically? on unix machines or windoze
machines?

if unix: depends on dhcp client daemon. the one that is used on suse 7.3
for example writes EVERYTHING it gets from the dhcp server into a status
file (/var/lib/dhcpcd/%{device}.info or the like.). the rest is some
grep,awk,sed action in the samba rc script.
if windowze: man 5 dhcpd.conf :)
