 Hi, I'm trying to configure /etc/dhcpd in order to set up a two machine 
 home network using LTSP.
 The P1 client boots with etherboot but I can't start dhcpd.
 Below is my my most recent config attempt, together with the current 
 error message when I try to start dhcpd.
 My DNS is 203.79.110.81 and the server IP used in successful Win config 
 is 192.168.0.1

 No subnet declaration for start (0.0.0.0).
 Please write a subnet declaration in your dhcpd.conf file for the
 network segment to which interface start is attached.

Show the the output of 'ipconfig -a', and what exact command line (you may
have to dig through your startup scripts) you're using to start dhcpd.  If
you can't work out how exactly dhcpd is being started, write back with
distro, version, etc, and more help will be provided.

I suspect that you have an active interface called 'start' which doesn't
have an IP address, but which dhcpd is being told to listen on.  But let's
see whether the above data helps decide that.

 My /etc/dhcp.conf currently looks like that below; everything else 
 commented out.
 
 When I write a subnet declaration for 192.168.0.0 and for 192.168.0.1 
 (server -
 presumably the network segment to which interface start is attached) I 
 get the
 message that the two conflict.
 
 Any ideas ?

Whoa!  The specification should be 'subnet network address netmask
mask'.  First rule: network addresses always end in even numbers.

I think you need to redescribe your problem, because I'm getting a bit of a
mixed messsage from the random-quoted stuff at the bottom of your message.
