This is a quick, down and dirty of how I have it running on my
FreeBSD3.2, mileage may vary and I may have forgotten something. Be
sure to check out the docs that are included.

1. Install isc-dhcp2
2. add rc.conf line: dhclient ed0 #this tells it to run dhclient on a
particular device
3. dhclient.conf:
# Defaults
timeout 60;
reboot  10;
retry   60;
select-timeout  5;
initial-interval        2;
interface       "ed0" {
#this next line is required for @home, a pseudo authentication
#it should be something like cx111111-a
send host-name "yourhostname";
request subnet-mask, broadcast-address, routers, domain-name-servers,
        domain-name;
require domain-name-servers;
}
