O.P. RE: new network with dedicated dhcp/dns
well learning was the main objective but not the only desired outcome.
Basically I wanted to set up my own DNS so I can have internal address mappings for machines which don't support netbios.
I was considering setting up DNS on OSX Server but then I couldn't find any instructions to set it up with dhcp, and I wanted to have both on the same server, and thought taking the load off the OSX box was a good Idea, considering it will be busy serving media and video and what not.
The reason the osx box wasn't going to host http as well was (well it is but) mainly due to the fact that the box will be connected to a tv and controlled via vlc server, the osx box will do http but only internal stuff
