The manual tells you exactly when this is written: "Before dhcpd grants a lease to a host, it records the lease in this file and makes sure that the contents of the file are flushed to disk." > Also i wanted to know the behaviour of dhcpd when an IP lease is finished. > i.e. whether the name of the client(MAC address) and IP will be removed from > the dhcpd.leases file or not. What are you actually trying to accomplish? Learning? Well, you'll learn better if you try it for yourself. Set a short lease-time, renew the lease on a client, and see what happens... Something in particular? It's better to describe what you're trying to do and people can make better suggestions.
