    Exclamation how can i get my dhcp running?

    HI

    Ive installed fedora 8 and wanted to DHCP server running. So ive installed dhcp using "yum install dhcp"
    After installing, ive configured my dhcpd.conf, created touch /var/lib/dhcp/dhcpd.leases
    i activate it on boot using chkconfig dhcpd on but when i start the service, it failed.
    I have test if my DHCP process is running using pgrep dhcpd but it outputs nothing. as i know, i should output some process ID but in my case, its nothing.

    here is my dhcpd.conf file:

    ddns-update-style none;

    option domain-name-servers 145.253.2.75, 193.174.32.18;

    default-lease-time 86400;
    max-lease-time 604800;

    authoritative;

    subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
    range 192.168.0.200 192.168.0.229;
    option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
    option broadcast-address 192.168.0.255;
    option routers 192.168.0.1;
    }



    Please help me.

    What was the error message that you received when you tried to start the service?
    What do the log files tell you about what happened when you tried to start the service?
