Adding a server to Baratiwa

We decided to relocate the server processes to a dedicated server, as opposed to running various services on the router.

We implemented the DHCP process on to the server. This reduces strain on the router. We also added a helper-address to make sure that DHCP continued to work.

For a test, we also enabled HTTP and a local DNS. This let us create a locally hosted website and translation. This is a similar idea to MIT's Cisco start page.
