    As I understand it, ICS designates one box as the server and assigner of DHCP
    addresses (namely, the one you install it on). Thereafter it provides an IP
    address to any box, Win or Linux, that requests one using the DHCP protocols.
    So in principle you should just be able to specify that the Linux box is
    using DHCP and all the rest will happen in due course.
