There is nothing special in Bering dhcpd (I guess you are talking about dhcpD -emphasis on the D-) since apparently you want to serve addresses to your internal network. In fact it is exactly the one used by Dachstein. It is on Bering disk but not activated by default since I think that it is useless for small networks. If you want to activate it just add it to the LRP= list in syslinux.cfg (by the way there is a doc on Bering and there is none on dhcpd since the one provided on Charles site is excellent) and you will be done.
