Save, do a "service dhcpd restart" (it should say
OK), then
"tail -f /var/log/messages" and watch what is
going on. Restart the clients (one by one if you wish to examine /var/log/messages after each client, otherwise you may restart them all simultaneously :-)...).

[[ N.B. I suppose you have configured the clients to use
dhcp and not have anything statically assigned... ]]

What should be going on is that the clients in the
classroom ask for IP configuration (dhcp request), then dhcpd replies with the data above (dhcp offer) and then each client accepts this offer. If all goes well, up to this point each client should have a 192.168.0.* IP assigned dynamically, and be able to ping any other client with such address, as well as the server, 192.168.0.1. If this doesn't happen, tell us what does
happen.

I did as you suggested and I still cannot connect the machines to the new server :(

Before even trying to connect, after you reload the dhcpd, do "netstat -ta" and look to see if the server is listening (state LISTEN) on the dhcp port. Also "ifconfig eth1" and "netstat -rn" so we can be sure you did what people intended you to do.

/etc/dhcpd.conf

max-lease-time 43200;     #7200

} # this means don't do anything with the big network

}
