You will probably want to use PPP for your dial-in users. For them, the
IP address is assigned in PPP's options.ttyS[01-nn] files. In other
words, the user gets the IP address for the modem line they connect to. I
recommend using mgetty with the AutoPPP option, especially if you want to
allow both telnet and PPP access on the same phone line. You do not use
DHCP for dial-in users.
As another posted, you can get the DHCPd server from
http://www.isc.org/dhcp.html. As for the other topics (DNS and web server
configuration), you should read through the Linux DNS and WWW HOWTO's,
included in most distributions and available online at
http://metalab.unc.edu/LDP/HOWTO/. You might also visit the Apache site
(http://www.apache.org/) for web server info.
