The changes in 4.4.4-5ubuntu9 on xenial are essentially the same as what I put in the ppa for trusty in terms of the directory permissions (note, trusty also updates the PARANOIA patch which xenial already had). Can trusty users comment on if the ppa packages for trusty fixes the issues for you?

The syslog says: dhcpd: Can't create new lease file: Permission denied It looks like a permission problem, because # chown -R dhcpd:dhcpd /var/lib/dhcp the above command temporarily solves the issue, until dhcpd is restarted: at that time, the ownership of the directory and the lease file is set back to root:root.
