I am trying to set up a DHCP server for a network that does not go on the internet using fedora 14. I have tried several site and every one I look at has a different dhcpd.conf file. I have tried many and every time I try to start the service they fail. Like I said it does not go on the internet. No matter what I do when I try to start the dhcpd service it fails
[root@pcrepair ~]# service dhcpd start
Starting dhcpd: [FAILED]
here is my current config file
# specify domain name
option domain-name
"server.world";
# specify DNS's hostname or IP address
#option domain-name-servers
#dlp.server.world;
# default lease time
default-lease-time 600;
# max lease time
max-lease-time 7200;
# this DHCP server to be declared valid
authoritative;
# specify network address and subnet mask
subnet 10.1.5.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
# specify the range of lease IP address
range dynamic-bootp 10.1.5.200 10.1.5.254;
# specify broadcast address
option broadcast-address 10.1.5.255;
# specify default gateway
option routers 10.1.5.1;
}
