The mTCP DHCP client writes output to STDOUT and to the MTCPCFG file, 
which is pointed to by an environment variable.  It's a simple matter of 
programming/scripting to convert the output from either one into 
something that looks like a static WATTCP configuration.  I've tested my 
DHCP client fairly widely and have not had any bug reports on it (yet).

If you have trouble with mTCP getting a configuration from the DHCP 
server, I have a debug trace built into it.  Turning the trace on is 
easy (see DEBUG.TXT) and from the trace I can help you figure out if you 
have a more generic problem that is preventing the WATTCP applications 
from getting an address.

(As a side note, all of the mTCP apps include a trace mode.  It makes 
debugging network problems like this much easier.)
