It may in the end be easier to buy an inexpensive network hub, so each has it's own network connection to the DSL line (that way, if the Windows box goes doesn for, say, reboots after Windows Update (*cough*), your Sun box will stay online).

If you don't already have one, though, something with firewall ability will be better. You could also use NAT behind the router/hub/firewall for some amount of security.

DHCP_RELEASE(1) 					      General Commands Manual						   DHCP_RELEASE(1)

NAME
dhcp_release - Release a DHCP lease on a the local dnsmasq DHCP server. SYNOPSIS
dhcp_release <interface> <address> <MAC address> <client_id> DESCRIPTION
A utility which forces the DHCP server running on this machine to release a DHCP lease. Send a DHCPRELEASE message via the specified interface to tell the local DHCP server to delete a particular lease. The interface argument is the interface in which a DHCP request _would_ be received if it was coming from the client, rather than being faked up here. The address argument is a dotted-quad IP addresses and mandatory. The MAC address is colon separated hex, and is mandatory. It may be prefixed by an address-type byte followed by -, eg 10-11:22:33:44:55:66 but if the address-type byte is missing it is assumed to be 1, the type for ethernet. This encoding is the one used in dnsmasq lease files. The client-id is optional. If it is "*" then it treated as being missing. NOTES
MUST be run as root - will fail otherwise. LIMITATIONS
Only usable on IPv4 DHCP leases. SEE ALSO
dnsmasq(8) AUTHOR
