dhcpd.conf question

Hi all,
   I'm beginning to think that some of the dhcpd docs are wrong or 
perhaps I can't read.  I am trying to write a simple dhcpd.conf file for 
a machine with a single NIC.  This will assign a small subset of the 
192.168.14.0 subnet for automatic assignment and will assign a fixed ip 
address to a small NAS appliance that I purchased.

The code (below) fails on /etc/dhcpd start.  What did I miss?

#
ddns-update-style      interim;
ignore client-updates;

#subnet 192.168.14.0 netmask 255.255.255.0{

#default-lease-time     600;
#max-lease-time       86400;

#option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
#option domain-name-servers  204.127.203.135, 204.148.225.135;
#option routers     192.168.14.249;
#}

subnet 192.168.14.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
    range 192.168.14.80 192.168.14.95;
    default-lease-time	600;
    max-lease-time     86400;

    option domain-name-servers  xxx.yyy.zzz.rrr, xxx.ddd.ttt.ooo;
    option routers   192.168.14.249;

    host simpleshare {
	hardware ethernet 00:01:6c:bd:1d:90;
         fixed-address     192.168.14.96;
         option host-name  simpleshare;
    }
}
