With ISC DHCP

Install the BSDi dhclient-script and dhclient.conf in /etc

edit the conf file to suit, the stock version should probably
work.  start /usr/sbin/dhclient from a shell script in
/usr/local/etc/rc.d

I also read that they have added more client scripts
so check to see iof there is now one for FreeBSD.
