Do you have the fixed-host settings in there?  Something along the lines
of this:

#
# Fixed-host settings
#
host hostname.of-network-card.net {
        hardware ethernet 00:40:05:54:30:00;
        fixed-address a.a.a.a;
}

subnet x.x.x.x netmask 255.255.255.248 {
        option subnet-mask 255.255.255.248;
        range y.y.y.y z.z.z.z;
}

I had a similar error when I first started my dhcp server.
