:If you are not using DHCP on an interface, you have to tell dhcpd to not use it add to dhcpd.conf:
subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
}
That will basically say it does not need to worry about eth0.
The interfaces can be specified on the comamnd line, you will need to find out how to specify that in your distro.
Ok, I did that and now /etc/init.d/dhcp will start. The other computer still won't get an IP address. I crashed for the night. Hopefully I'll get to it some more tonight.
