I guess something went wrong during install. I did a apt-get install dhcp
once and I remember that I got a message which tells me to edit
/etc/init.d/dhcp. But I tried some other packages (bootp) and I got errors
when uninstalling dhcp and it also would not reinstall. So I had to force
some things, but now and empty /etc/init.d/dhcp is created and dhcpd.conf
is not created at all. I tried to run /usr/sbin/dhcpd -d -f for debugging
but that did not help.

Is this an error in the dhcp package? I am using potato. Can anyone send
me an original /etc/init.d/dhcp file?

Thanks,
Sebastiaan
