Hello!

  I don't like the current behaviour of the net/isc-dhcp3-server port
of creating 'dhcpd' user and group using dynamic allocation instead of
having static one (as specified in /usr/ports/{U,G}IDs). I like the idea
of [ug]id ranges, and dynamic allocation doesn't keep within this idea
(ids of users and daemons get mixed). Is there specific reason why there
is no static [ug]id for net/isc-dhcp3-server?

Sincerely, Dmitry
