The problem there is that you have a very small "windows". AFAIK there
are no tftp servers that can generate files on-the-fly, so your script
would have to generate the XML within less than a second, reliably, and
do all the necessary asterisk changes within another second or two, and
I doubt this will be possible _that_ quick.
Of course you can use ISC dhcpd for tailoring answers to your needs
(dynamic setting of config file etc), but IMO this will only work well
if the phones support http config download, because that gives you a
much better hook to put your script, and you can hold back the file
until all the asterisk changes are done, and finally return the XML (or
whatever).
