DHCP server must be configured to serve at least all networks in which it hav its interface addresses - in the simplest case its configuration contain empty 'subnet' statement for the interface on which there are no clients and the server "serves" that network by ignoring DHCP requests from that interface. So you have the declaration for 192.168.129.0. If you want to allow DHCP server to serve two or more networks from the same network interface, you should use the 'shared-network' declaration for all such networks, i.e.: shared-network "name" { subnet 192.168.129.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 { <subnet parameters> } subnet the.ip.of.my.home netmask 255.255.255.240 { <subnet parameters> } } I this case the server will serve requests coming from 'eth0' (in network 192.168.129.0) giving to clients the addresses declared in either of subnet declarations (at the server's option) - in this example it will be address for subnet of the.ip.of.my.home because declaration for subnet 192.168.129.0 is empty.
