I have two servers, one smallish one that does DHCP, WWW, courier-imap,
bind, and ldap.

The other is my thin client server - big , fat, Redhat Workstation + ltsp,
tftp.

I only have clients (forward & reverse) on my nameserver, not in /etc/hosts.

The nameserver (of course) is served up by dhcp :-

        option domain-name-servers    172.20.1.1;

All works fine.

Cheers,    Andy!
