Hi,

Tested - sorry, didn't work - 'dhcp' wouldn't start. Perhaps my fault. I
have suspected something like this for my machine.

/var/log/messages tells me:

...
Nov 14 16:36:27 ipfire dhcpd: /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf line 16: Pool
declaration with no address range.
Nov 14 16:36:27 ipfire dhcpd:      }
Nov 14 16:36:27 ipfire dhcpd:       ^
Nov 14 16:36:27 ipfire dhcpd: Pool declarations must always contain at least
Nov 14 16:36:27 ipfire dhcpd: one range statement.
Nov 14 16:36:27 ipfire dhcpd: /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf line 30: Pool
declaration with no address range.
Nov 14 16:36:27 ipfire dhcpd:      }
Nov 14 16:36:27 ipfire dhcpd:       ^
Nov 14 16:36:27 ipfire dhcpd: Pool declarations must always contain at least
Nov 14 16:36:27 ipfire dhcpd: one range statement.
Nov 14 16:36:27 ipfire dhcpd: Configuration file errors encountered --

...

And...yes... [Hrm!]...I'm running 'dhcpd' on GREEN and BLUE with NO
address pools. Only fixed leases.

Anything I can do to test this without address ranges?

Best,
Matthias
