[olug] dhcpd.conf help

I'm not so sure what's wrong with your's, but here's mine and it seems to
work fine.  perhaps you need the shared-network tag?  This is on box with
IP 192.168.200.1 (on the internal network)... make sure your routing
tables work I guess and that dhcpd is running... perhaps give it a restart
to reread the config?
mine runs as "/usr/sbin/dhcpd -q rl1"  with rl1 my internal NIC
