Restarting dhcpd (was: RE: Best practice for defining static IP addresses?)

[Glenn Satchell]

Perhaps the old process has not completely shutdown when the new one
starts? You could put a sleep command in /etc/init.d/dhcpd - look for
the 'restart)' tag and put a suitable value (maybe sleep 1), so it
looks something like this:

restart)
	$0 stop
	sleep 1
	$0 start
	;;

One other thing, please don't hijack mail threads. For a new message
please start with a new email. This thread has nothing to do with
static IP addresses and it messes up threaded email readers and list
archives.
