http://www.isc.org

Has some documentation and examples.  The dhcpd.conf manpage is also quite
enlightening.

Attached below is my dhcpd.conf which covers both static IP allocation
basedon MAC address and dynamic allocation from a pool

# dhcpd.conf

# Configuration file for ISC dhcpd

option domain-name "moria.org";
option domain-name-servers 192.168.1.1, 146.231.128.5, 146.231.29.2 ;

#Dynamic allocation to non registered machines from a pool
subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
        range 192.168.1.10 192.168.1.50;
  }

# Fixed IP addresses can also be specified for hosts.
host smaug {

}
