Hello all

I am using slc5.3 x86 . I have configured my dhcp server properly but i
cannot start the dhcpd service.
Can anybody help me in resolving this problem.

Steps used by me in configuring dhcp server
1. In  /etc/sysconfig/dhcpd i edit the first line as follows:

    DHCPDARGS=eth1


2. contents of /etc/dhcpd.conf

   ddns-update-style interim;
   ignore client-updates;

subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {

# --- default gateway
        option routers                  192.168.1.1;
        option subnet-mask              255.255.255.0;

        option nis-domain               "juhep.res.in.";
        option domain-name              "juhep.res.in";
        option domain-name-servers      192.168.1.1;

        option time-offset              -18000; # Eastern Standard Time
#       option ntp-servers              192.168.1.1;
#       option netbios-name-servers     192.168.1.1;
# --- Selects point-to-point node (default is hybrid). Don't change this
unless
# -- you understand Netbios very well
#       option netbios-node-type 2;

        range dynamic-bootp 192.168.0.128 192.168.0.254;
        default-lease-time 21600;
        max-lease-time 43200;

        # we want the nameserver to appear at a fixed address
 #       host ns {
 #             next-server marvin.redhat.com;
 #           hardware ethernet 12:34:56:78:AB:CD;
 #         fixed-address 207.175.42.254;
 #  }
}

3. chkconfig dhcpd on
4. service dhcpd start
