Running

* net-misc/dhcp
Latest version available: 3.0.1-r1
Latest version installed: 3.0.1-r1
Size of downloaded files: 831 kB
Homepage: http://www.isc.org/products/DHCP
Description: ISC Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
License: isc-dhcp


I have a network of doze boxen. This DHCP server will be replacing the DHCP function on a W2K domain controller.
Sadly, we have a LOT of legacy software which requires WINS to function.
This same server is also going to be running BIND and serving up "normal" dns for the network. The W2K PDC will remain for SSO and WINS.

The question is,
what option to I plug into the dhcp config file to spew out a wins server to the doze boxen?
