no it's a bug on the 1.5.0 ISO that was spotted by Moe two days ago. 
dhcp doesn't touch those files so you need to create them manually. If 
you wish to retreive the default files then cd into /etc/ and get the 
following URLS straight from the (fixed) ISO build code:


http://svn.foo-projects.org/svn/lunar/lunar-iso/trunk/template/etc/host.conf
http://svn.foo-projects.org/svn/lunar/lunar-iso/trunk/template/etc/hosts
http://svn.foo-projects.org/svn/lunar/lunar-iso/trunk/template/etc/nsswitch.conf

these 3 links all point to files missing on the 1.5.0 ISO.
