dhcpd.leases

[nstrand@bresnanlink.net (Strand, Nathaniel)]

I'm trying to set up and configure a dhcp server and when I try to start it 
is says:

Can't open lease database /var/state/dhcp/dhcpd.leases: No such file or 
directory -- check for failed database rewrite attempt.
Please read the dhcpd.leases manual page if you don't know what to do about 
this.

I can't find a dhcpd.leases manual page.  Does anyone know where I can find 
some documentation on this, or can anyone tell me what I might try from 
here.  the directory does exist, but the file doesn't.  I'm lost here.

Troy are you at the Linux Expo?

We should hook up and talk.

I have lots of notes to share with the LUG when I get back.
