I am getting this set of errors when I try to start dhcpd:

Any ideas what it could be? This is my dhcpd.conf file:

allow unknown-clients;
ddns-rev-domainname "armon.server";
server-name "mc1.armon.server";
use-host-decl-names on;
option broadcast-address 192.168.1.255;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
option routers 192.168.1.1;
# File with key we shall use to securely update zone files
###########################################################
include "/etc/named.keys";

# Our server is authority
#########################################################
server-identifier armon.server;
authoritative;

# Fedora 's DDNS Zone
zone armon.server. {
primary 192.168.1.1;
key DHCP_UPDATER;
}

default-lease-time 86400;
max-lease-time 172800;

option domain-name "armon.server";
option domain-name-servers 192.168.1.1;

allow client-updates;
ddns-domainname "armon.server";
ddns-updates on;
ddns-update-style interim;

# Declaration of network properties ( range ... )
# Fedora 's DDNS Zone
subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
max-lease-time 172800;
default-lease-time 86400;
next-server mc1.armon.server;
authoritative;
allow client-updates;
allow unknown-clients;
ddns-updates on;
ddns-rev-domainname "armon.server";
ddns-domainname "armon.server";
server-name "mc1.armon.server";
range dynamic-bootp 192.168.1.100 192.168.1.254;
zone armon.server {
primary 127.0.0.1;
key DHCP_UPDATER;
}
zone 1.168.192.in-addr.arpa. {
primary 127.0.0.1;
key DHCP_UPDATER;
}
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
option routers 192.168.1.1;
one-lease-per-client on;
group {
ddns-rev-domainname "armon.server";
ddns-domainname "armon.server";
server-name "mc1.armon.server";
max-lease-time 172800;
default-lease-time 86400;
allow client-updates;
allow unknown-clients;
ddns-updates on;
use-host-decl-names on;
}
}

Even though it says fedora everywhere, I am running ubuntu breezy. Anyone know what the problem is?

Figured it out. It was the wrong version of dhcp. But then the server wouldn't serve ip addresses even though it was running... Oh well.
