I tried creating a rule allowing udp/67 traffic to 255.255.255.255 and
it still is dropped on that rule.  Strange.

Should I just create a new DHCP server on another box other than my
gateway?

The initial DHCP discovery from the clients will be broadcast; they will
not be sent to the DHCP server's address. Do you allow 67/udp sent to
255.255.255.255? Do you have a capture of packets that are dropped?
