You might be able to play some games with arp to poll the MAC addresses
of new machines and populate the dhcpd.conf file.
have a known block of temporary ip's
query arp on a device that would know the MAC's of everything
look for something in the temp ip space, add the entry based on that to
dhcpd.conf, kick dhcpd, reboot the client.
May be easier than hand doing a bunch of 'em
