ISC DHCP packages Overview
The version of DHCP server (rpm package name called "dhcp-4.1.1-9.fc12.x86_64" ) that comes with Fedora is maintained and distributed by the Internet Software Consortium (http://www.isc.org). The source package that you can download from ISC includes not only the DHCP server, but also a DHCP client and a DHCP relay agent. However, Fedora separates it into two RPM packages: the DHCP client package called "dhclient-4.1.1-9.fc12.x86_64" and the DHCP server package called "dhcp-4.1.1-9.fc12.x86_64". The DHCP client package is installed by default by the workstation installation.
