Basically, I will have a bunch of interfaces, with 10.x ip addresses, and I
want to give out DHCP addresses that are completly un-related (say 130.131.3.3).
I will know by the physical interface what IP addresses I want to give out.

It doesn't look like I can do this with dhcpd (from ISC), as it wants to use an 
ip/mask
to determing a physical interface.

So, anyone have any ideas, short of hacking the DHCPd code?

Thanks,
Ben
