I suppose I should just take the time to convert my Solaris DHCP over to ISC
and be done with it.  I'd just hate having to go over everything everytime I
upgrade Sun Ray software.

It's easy to set ISC dhcpd up just once -- a lot of people already have it running and just need to augment their configuration with Sun Ray options. It doesn't require reconfiguration every time you install or upgrade the Sun Ray server software.

If you're operating on a shared LAN segment you only need to enable LAN connections, configuring the Sun DHCP server isn't a mandatory SRS installation/upgrade step...

Just make sure LAN connections are on (utadm -L on), push the latest firmware into /tftpboot (utfwadm -A -V -a), update the version string in your ISC configuration (for which there are plenty of examples on the web) and it should all be fine.

(Disclaimer: The above works for me both at home and on the campus network of one of my employers. Your mileage will most probably vary considerably.)
