I'm having an odd problem, it keeps telling me semicolon expected when I start the

dhcpd service, but I'm sitting here looking at the semicolon in the config file. I've

re-created a few times and the same thing happens, won't allow me to start the service.

Hi luis,

It just because of selinux . please disable selinux and reboot your machine and

try again.

#vi m/ etc/ sel i nux/conf i g

find this line

SELI NUX=enfor ci ng

and replace with

SELI NUX=di sabl ed

and reboot your machine .
