[CentOS] auto seek a server

[Jerry Geis]

Hi all,

When putting multiple centos 5.1 boxes on a network (DHCP for network) 
and 1 centos 5.1 server
is there a way that these clients can automatically "seek" the server.

Is there something in centso 5.1 that an inquiry can be sent out that says:

Is there a "Product XYZ" on this network?
And the server - and not all the clients - can respond to this quiry.

Just wondering, trying to reduce my setup time...
