The port you want is isc-dhcp. I seem to remember that it was a bit of
a pain to setup the first time (email me privately and I'll send you an
example config file if you like). The only trouble I foresee is that if
you don't have CDs for your install, you may have a hard time finding a
package that'll work on 4.3-RELEASE without updating. Isc-dhcp is rock
solid - I have had it run for over a year without a glitch once setup.
