I don't know of any books -- I mostly learned about them from man pages. I use
CentOS 6 on my laptop (and on my desktop machine). It should be possible to
install the servers on a BBB. The main DNS server used throughout the Internet
is BIND (Berkeley Internet Name Domain). It should be possible to do a web
search for Berkeley Internet Name Domain and get all sorts of information,
including recomended reading.
There are a number of DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) servers out
there. The one I have installed on my CentOS 6 systems is from isc
(
http://isc.org/products/DHCP/).
