+When starting the dhcp init.d script for the first time, it may fail to load |
| 58 |
+but neglect to give you any useful info. |
| 59 |
+</p> |
| 60 |

| 61 |
+<pre caption="DHCP Failing Example"> |

+# <i>/etc/init.d/dhcp start</i> |

+ * Setting ownership on dhcp.leases ... [ ok ] |
| 64 |
+ * Starting dhcpd ... [ !! ] |
| 65 |
+</pre> |
| 66 |
+ |
| 67 |
+<p> |
| 68 |
+The trick is to know where dhcpd is sending its output. Simply browse to |
| 69 |
+/var/log and read the log files. Since the exact log file depends on the |
| 70 |
+package you are using as a syslog, try running <c>grep -Rl dhcpd /var/log</c> |
| 71 |
+to narrow down the possibilities. Chances are you made a typo in your config |
| 72 |
+file. You could also try running <c>dhcpd -d -f</c> (short for debug / |
| 73 |
+foreground) and debug the error based upon the output. |
