So basically it sounds like you want to have Computer A send a DHCP
request on behalf of computers B and C, and then have computer A get the
answer and use whatever it does to set the IP on B and C.
You could probably use the Perl Net::DHCP module to create the packet.
The tricky part will be convincing machine A to listen for machine b and
c's MAC without adversly affecting B&C.
Perhaps something along the way of a DHCP relay on machine A could help.
