Hi,

We have a system at work that uses a Linux box (Live boot) running some data
gathering tools.  This information is written to a web page and served up to a
Windows box connected 1:1, (eg no other devices) for analysis.  So far so
good.

At present the Windows box provides DHCP and the Linux box advertises it's
hostname.  What we would really like to do is get the current Linux box to
provide DHCP and DNS.  Can anyone point me at a suitable tutorial or guidance
to explain how to set up and configure such a system?

dnsmasq[1] is relatively simple to work with, and is probably available in your favourite distro.
