Fedora breaks dhcpd, RH9 doesn't?

[pctech at mybellybutton.com]

DHCPd most certainly is not built into the kernel.

It is a daemon that is started/stopped.  Just like any
other.

With that in mind, is it running?  When you do a ps
-aef, does it show as running?

I will bet that you don't have it set to run on
startup.
