I always thought DNSCache was part of tinydns, e,g, the djbdns suite. Will this really disturb? You could publish your LEAF box to be the nameserver for your ad-hoc clients, if you want to rely on your windoze set up to server DNS then do a zone transfer to your LEAF box to take over once the windoze box is off.
