ISC DHCP: The ISC Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol Distribution provides a
freely redistributable reference implementation of all aspects of the DHCP
protocol, through a suite of DHCP tools. These tools all use a modular API
which is designed to be sufficiently general that it can easily be made to work
on POSIX-compliant operating systems and also non-POSIX systems like Windows NT
and MacOS. Last modification on October 27 2000.

Linux Network Address Translation: ``Network Address Translation (NAT) is a vitally important Internet
technology for a variety of reasons. It can provide load balancing for parallel
processing, it can provide several types of strong access security, and it can
provide fault-tolerance and high-availability. Finally, it can simplify some
basic network administration functions. Below, we sketch the possible uses, and
then follow up with Linux-specific applications.'' Last modification on December 28 2000.

DyDNS: DyDNS brings DNS (BIND) and DHCPd together to create a dynamic DNS
environment for intranets. DyDNS uses lease data files created by DHCPd and

of it in its later version. Last modification on December 29 2000.
