Pardon the question, but using DHCP seems so much simpler, why not set a
fixed .222 address in the dhcp server's config and set the machine's
network interface to DHCP?

Dhcp can serve a lot of configuration information: dns, netbios, ntp
servers, ... 
I think this is the current RFC: http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2132.txt

ISC's dhcpd, dnsmasq and probably others support sending these options.
