This is what I use for my home network behind a linksys wireless router.
Linux server, dual boot win/linux desktop, and a windows desktop.

Here is the program, called dnsmasq.  Email me privately or on list if
need help setting it up.

(Actually, I think one of the 3rd party repositories (don't know which
one) has packaged it into an RPM).
