I have a similar setup [using the ISC server].
Modify /etc/init.d/dhcp as below.

_part_ of mine says...

case "$1" in
        start)
                start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --pidfile $DHCPDPID 
                        --exec /usr/sbin/dhcpd eth2 eth1
                ;;
        stop)
                start-stop-daemon --stop --quiet --pidfile $DHCPDPID
                ;;
        restart)
                start-stop-daemon --stop --quiet --pidfile $DHCPDPID
                sleep 2
                start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --pidfile $DHCPDPID 
                        --exec /usr/sbin/dhcpd eth2 eth1
                ;;
        *)
                echo "Usage: /etc/init.d/dhcp {start|stop|restart}"
                exit 1
esac

and,just in case,  _part_ of /etc/dhcp.conf says...

subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
range 192.168.1.10 192.168.1.254;
option broadcast-address 192.168.1.255;
option routers 192.168.1.1;
}

subnet 192.168.2.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
range 192.168.2.10 192.168.2.254;
option broadcast-address 192.168.2.255;
option routers 192.168.2.1;
}
