You can use the DHCP package from ISC: http://www.isc.org/products/DHCP/
It contains a client, a server and a relay agent. Relaying DHCP is not done in-kernel, as far as I know...

I am trying to setup a Linux box to do routing between token ring and ethernet. I think I am almost done, but I have having problem with the bootp_relay part. I just want this router to forward a dhcp request to another server that is assigned to hand out the proper dhcp information back to the client. Is bootp_relay just a 0 or 1 flag and uses a config to read the IP address of the server? or does it store the IP information of the server in /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/all/bootp_relay? Is there a 'giaddr' field that stores this information? Is something I have to modify in a header field before compiling the kernel? I am using the 2.2.16 kernel, but I think it probably the same for the 2.4 kernels.
I just can't find it document how to setup the relay information.
Thank you in advance for any information,
Scott
