Ok guys,
  I've lost my DNS/DHCP server at home and I want to start over on this 
new machine vs. use my "existing" setup since it's still screwy.

Here is the goal:
1. A DNS/DHCP server that is on a DHCP cable modem acting as a caching 
DNS server. I'd like to be able to browse to http://www.home and it go 
to my www server on my network, vs having to use the IP address.

2. My clients to be able to ping each other via hostname without having 
to use hosts/lmhost files.

Suggestions on what to read/where to start? I plan to use CentOS 5.3 on 
the new server.

TIA,
-Roy
