Well, it almost *has* to be something small and silly, then. What you have configured is almost exactly the same as what works for me. My settings come directly out of the pkg-message for the port, and are: # ### recommended settings for running isc-dhcpd dhcpd_enable="YES" dhcpd_flags="-q" # command option(s) dhcpd_conf="/usr/local/etc/dhcpd.conf" # configuration file dhcpd_ifaces="vr0" # ethernet interface(s) dhcpd_withumask="022" # file creation mask Assuming that other scripts from that directory are starting properly, my next step would be to inject debugging output into the script and look at what actually gets printed to the console at boot. If you haven't looked at the existing console output already, that may have some messages that didn't go into any log files. Good luck, and sorry I can't be more helpful. -- Lowell Gilbert, embedded/networking software engineer, Boston area http://be-well.ilk.org/~lowell/
