DHCP assistance required.

	G'day all,
		I'm just starting to get to know dhcp and have got stuck very early on
with the dhcp parser rejecting dhcpd.conf as shown below:

Feb 17 16:46:36 dell dhcpd: /etc/dhcpd.conf line 4: expecting a
parameter or declaration
Feb 17 16:46:36 dell dhcpd: default-lease-time 600;
Feb 17 16:46:36 dell dhcpd:                        ^

The dhcpd.conf file is very basic to begin with:

[root at dell network-scripts]# cat /etc/dhcpd.conf
#Sample /etc/dhcpd.conf
# (add your comments here)
ddns-update-style none;
default-lease-time 600;
max−lease−time 7200;
#option subnet−mask 255.255.255.0;
#option broadcast−address 192.168.1.255;
option routers 192.168.1.254;
#option domain−name−servers 192.168.1.1, 192.168.1.2;
#option domain−name "mydomain.org";
authoritative;
subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
range 192.168.1.100 192.168.1.199;
}
[root at dell network-scripts]#

	All the examples I can find have a similar line for default lease time
(line 4 here), but the parser seems to want more.  There is nothing
after the ";" so what do I need?
