Help with Perl to change dhcpd.conf file

Hi all,
I am too new for this stuff and i am lost in perl tutorials. I need help to change dhcp entries in .conf file with a perl script.

The file entries are like below :
Code:
host bertha-clp-0 {
    hardware ethernet       AA:0A:A0:00:6c:40;
    fixed-address           10.10.10.72;
    option subnet-mask      255.255.255.0;
    next-server             10.10.10.2;
    option routers          10.10.10.1;
    option extensions-path  "bertha.cfg";
    filename                "/agul.clp;
}
host mona-clp-1 {
    hardware ethernet       00:0A:A0:00:20:CC;
    fixed-address           10.10.10.73;
    option subnet-mask      255.255.255.0;
    next-server             10.10.10.2;
    option routers          10.10.10.1;
    option extensions-path  "bertha.cfg";
    filename                "/agul.clp";
}

I want to change bertha entry - filename portion to kucar.clp with command of " editdhcp.pl bertha kucar"

Hope you can help me
Thanks
