I admit, that the DHCP client is the *most* important part, since most
systems are certainly clients, or ???
But if we already import the ISC-DHCP sources on a vendor branch and
it doesn't seem to me too expensive to import the server side of this...
shouldn't we see it simply as a benefical "add on" ?! Wouldn't it be
more overhead having to install the complete package using the ports
collection, although 50% are are already installed in the BASE system ?
DNS is in BSD included as server and client, as well as NFS ...
maybe we should do this with DHCP as well ??
