My firewall is handling dhcp and dns with dnsmasq. I've added sites I
host from home to /etc/hosts on the firewall with lines like:

192.168.1.60 somehost.homelinux.net

Seems to work fine for me. dnsmasq is available for linux and *bsd.
You can also configure it blindfolded. Err... well... y'know...
