Interesting, I never considered running a guest VM and it serving up dhcp addresses :D
So, one thing about my home network is my machines don't all have much RAM. This particular machine has 1 GB and is my "administrative" server - DNS, NIS, NFS, etc... I slivered off a small VM for a postgres DB and like it to start up when the machine boots. I do, sometimes bring that down and bring up another VM...
I definitely understand what you mean though - but this isn't mission critical or anything so I don't mind it doing what its doing - it works fine to date by bouncing dhcpd - but I hate that ;) I may try to get my cable modem-router to serve up dhcp - but I don't think it'll let me do ddns internally (that's another thing I am doing inside my network)...
64 MB is plenty for a minimal C5 running dhcpd. been there, done that.
