There are already small DHCP servers (dnsmasq, udhcp), but there is no supported open source server that can do leases from a DB, and no open source server that scales to 10M records.
Sauron? http://sauron.jyu.fi/
It's a front end, not a server. Try adding 10M records to SQL: not a problem. Try adding 10M records to ISC DHCPD: 10m startup time with an *empty* leases file. Sauron would be a fair bit easier if the DNS/DHCP protocol servers would read/write to SQL natively. Plus, the data in the GUI would be live, rather than stale. See a post to the sauron list describing this exact problem: http://lists.jyu.fi/pipermail/sauron-users/2006/000252.html
The questions on the ISC DHCP list aren't too bad. :)
I'm awaiting their new versions patiently ;-)
