I think I read your reply as you want a dhcp and name server for your
LAN, right? That is what I have set up right now. A 12.04 desktop VM
running in VirtualBox, the NIC is bridged to the host adapter. It
works great but I had to fiddle a bit to get the dnsmasq I downloaded
with apt-get to run.
Strange. I installed 12.04 from scratch, and had to install dnsmasq
and change it in the NetworkManager. In fact I finally fixed an issue
with the Ubuntu machine itself not resolving names outside itself (ie
Internet DNS) by changing the line to "dns=dnsmasq,dns"
Thus the default on a new install

I believe the line:

Did you come across Stephane Graber's website and article at
http://www.stgraber.org/2012/02/24/dns-in-ubuntu-12-04/ (not sure if
Stephane is on this list). If what you are after is just nameserver changes
he addresses that. Now I'll admit to disabling the network manager install
of dnsmasq
