I am running DHCPD 4.0.2b2 and I am getting lots of errors like:
server dhcpd: [ID 702911 daemon.info] bind update on 192.168.0.1 got ack from dhcp: xid mismatch.
I found this comment from David Hankins in 2008:

I just wanted to know has the "at some point" arrived yet :-)
Is there an option to turn this error line off?
