The resolution to my dhcpd problem turned out to be a corrupt Windows 2000 
TCP/IP stack. I tweaked the server with the suggestions from the mailing 
list and still nothing. I tried requesting an address from a Win XP box on 
my network and that worked fine. After re-installing TCP/IP on the 2000 
box, it worked flawlessly.

Thanks for all your input.
