Most users nowadays have version 3.x, as that allows for several quite tricky 
constructs with PXE clients, and the like. Using 2.x should be fine for you.

You can configure some clients to have static IP addresses assigned by dhcpd, 
like setting up

host blah {
   fixed-address 1.2.3.4;
   hardware ethernet 00:00:de:ad:be:ef;
}

per host, and you can also have a

    range 192.168.0.10 192.168.0.99;

statement which will assign any host that does _not_ have a specific host 
stanza a yet unused IP from the given range.

The first case, fixed addresses, offers the advantage of using [192.168.0.10] 
sections in lts.conf, which is not possible with the latter range as you 
cannot predict which address will be given to which host (any need 
[00:00:de:ad:be:ef] stanzas then).

You should make sure that there's an /etc/hosts entry for any possibly 
assigned IP address, so that clients can resolve their own IP address to a 
hostname. This makes tracking syslog messages easier :-)

Hope to help
