Thanks for all the responses...actually, I tried something like that...but
I followed all your instructions and now I get the following when I start
dhcpd:

Open a socket for LPF: Invalid argument
exiting.

My dhcpc.conf looks like this:

option domain-name "bemidji.k12.mn.us";
option domain-name-servers 172.20.3.10;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.128;
default-lease-time 600;
max-lease-time 7200;

subnet 172.20.3.0 netmask 255.255.255.128 {
  range 172.20.3.20 172.20.3.30;
  option broadcast-address 172.20.3.127;
  option routers 172.20.3.1;
}

Any ideas here?

Thanks again,

Tony Andrews
