dhcpd server - Can't bind to dhcp address. Address already in use

[Grey Kuyper]

The "entire" dhcpd.conf is nothing but comments (#) ecxept for the lines shown. There is no further information available in the dhcpd.conf file.
 
cat /etc/sysconfig/dhcp   give "No such file or directory".
 
That is what is so weird. This is an "out of the box install". Nothing fancy, nothing strange. Works on the laptop, fails on the server.
 
Weird.

Harder to diagnose with partial information; best to post the *entire* 
dhcpd.conf and also the contents of /etc/sysconfig/dhcp.

Don't grep for dhcp or bootp... rather grep for anything on ports 67 or 68.

So you installed from tarball, *not* from RPM? Yuck. Are you sure that you 
did not have an RPM installed earlier? That is, are you sure that you don't 
have duplicate stuff lying around?
