[Infrastructures] managing dhcpd.conf

[David Masten]

Just wondering if anyone has done or knows of software that changes
dhcpd.conf files in a programmatic fashion. 

dhcpd configs are the last thing I'm manually maintaining, and it is
getting in the way of other things I've automated. 

More specifically, I manage a lab environment with thousands of hosts
and hundreds of users. As a lab environment, installing OS's is the task
that I and my peers do most of. I've got the whole install process down
to a few clicks and some text entries in some web pages, except for
manually inserting 'host foo { hardware ...' in the dhcpd.conf.
