Thank you Craig for your input, I will change this on Monday and test it out. 

So 
subnet 10.154.19.0 netmask 255.255.255.254 {

should be changed to 
==> subnet 10.154.19.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {

range 10.154.19.10 10.154.19.20;          
option domain-name-servers $DNS_SERVER_IP_ADDRESS_1, $DNS_SERVER_IP_ADDRESS_2;
option domain-name "$YOUR_DOMAIN_NAME";

option broadcast-address 10.154.19.31; to
option broadcast-address 10.154.19.255;

for $DNS_SERVER_IP_ADDRESS_1, $DNS_SERVER_IP_ADDRESS_2 should it I leave them as is or do I put the ones that are on the host machine? or will it pick them up automagically? 

Do I need to have bind running as well?

Sorry to ask too many questions.  Last time I was trying this, I tried webmin, but I got confused with iptables and other little things.   Will the iptables part that I put in suffice also.

Thank you for your time and advice.  When I get back to work on Monday, I will try these suggestions and post back if I succeed or still have questions.

Regards,

Antonio
