Hi. Would it be much work to back-port the changes from NetBSD
that enables the DHCP extensions? (NetBSD's bootp support was
originally ported from FreeBSD's bootp_subr.c, wasn't it?)

If it's not too much work, do you think I would succeed in
convincing you to do it? (if I ask nicely and politely, of
course:-).

For various reasons, we cannot configure the DHCP server to hand
out dynamic addresses to BOOTP requests, so this would be really
useful to us when installing new clients. (our install script
could then generate a suitable entry to dhcpd.conf/bootptab/dns/
our inventory db and email it to a Real Person).
