There's no reason you can't run multiple DHCP servers on
your network. You should be able to restrict the LinkSys to
a subset of your C-class (for dynamic addresses). Then set
up DHCP on your Linux server and have it handle the MAC
addresses for the NICs in your LTSP workstations in another
part of the C-class (static addresses). Have you already
tried this? If so, did the workstations reliably choose to
take the response from the DHCP server which had a specific
entry for their MAC address? I'm not sure if this fits in
with your plans (needing to keep the router as the DHCP
server), but Jim is right that the DHCP server in that
router is probably not capable enough to handle LTSP
workstations.
