Hi Bray
What do the logs say?
Also, try running dhcpd with -d -f
-d Force dhcpd to log to stderr. This can be useful for
debugging,
and also at sites where a complete log of all dhcp
activity must
be kept, but syslogd(8) is not reliable or otherwise
cannot be
used. Normally, dhcpd will log all output using the
syslog(3)
function with the log facility set to LOG_DAEMON.
-f Run dhcpd as a foreground process, rather than allowing
it to run
as a daemon in the background. This is useful when
running dhcpd
under a debugger, or when running it out of inittab on
System V
systems.

My DHCPD.conf file looks as such.
-bash-3.1# nano /etc/dhcpd.conf
GNU nano 1.2.5 File: /etc/dhcpd.conf

shared-network LOCAL-NET {
option domain-name "example.com";
option domain-name-servers 68.94.156.1, 68.94.157.1;
subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
option routers 192.168.1.1;
range 192.168.1.20 192.168.1.35;
}
}
And my interfaces are configured as such.
cat /etc/hostname.rl0 < External interface
inet 192.168.1.2 255.255.255.0 NONE
cat /etc/hostname.rl1 < Internal Interface
192.168.1.3 255.255.255.0
nano rc.conf.local reads as such
dhcpd_flags=""
