I also have had massive difficulties getting the DHCP on the latest 
5.0.0 to run stable.  I have tried beta 1, 4 and 5. It seemed as though 
(for some unknown reason to me) that if there was one little mistake or 
glitch in the dhcp.conf ... there was NO way I could get the dhcp to run 
after that.  A "simple" reinstall fixed that issue for me a couple of 
times.  I finally have a beta5 setup working  .... now if only it hold 
together long enough for me to demo this a major tech get-together on 
May 19th!!!  The dhcp is suspect in my mind in this latest Fedora 5 ... 
nothing to prove or substantiate it other than hours of kicking at it to 
get dhcp to work stable and consistently.
