Hey Darren, Thanks for your help. I do specifically have multi-threading turned on, so that was part of what was confusing me.
I added in the multi-threading stanzas to the HA hook section and made sure the ports were different than 8000. In running the "kea-dhcp4 -T /etc/kea/kea-dhcp4" I am still getting the Error encountered: Error initializing hooks: CmdHttpListener cannot be started when multi-threading is disabled. However when I ran the "systemctl start kea-dhcp4", then a status, the service started this time. I don't know if this is a "feature" or not. AND synced with the primary, that is running 2.4. The files in the /var/lib/kea directory are showing synced files. I don't trust most of the results that come from AI, so I always double/triple check results that are returned. I would like to move to the 2.7, however my management would prefer to stay on verified versions.
