I install the dhcp on our new computer (slackware).

In our organization, we have an existing dhcp server
but we need to have a standby back up if something
will happen to the computer.

I copied the dhcpd.conf content from our running dhcp
server and place it to the new computer.

I did not connect the new computer to the network then
I tried to type dhcpd start it give me this error.

No subnet declaration for start (0.0.0.0).
** Ignoring requests on start. If this is not what
you want, please write a subnet declaration
in your dhcpd.conf file for the network segment
to which interface start is attached. ** 

Do I have to connect the new computer to the network
before running dhcp? I did not connect it because we
have a dhcp server running and it may cause some
conflicts.

Can the new computer run dhcp service without
connecting to the network? If so, why does the error
occurs?

Thanks for anybody's help.
