I had some spooky issues with dhcpd as well. When I first set up my node, it
would start ok but after a period of time dhcpd either stopped giving out
leases or stopped running completely (probably both). Since it worked fine
after a fresh reboot, for me the solution was to just reboot my node. Having
worked with Windows a lot, I'm used to doing this without a second thought,
so I never did too much investigating. The spooky part about it is that
after a few days the issue gradually went away, and now my node keeps giving
out leases like its supposed to.
