Yep authoritative is in there.

I didn't want to post the file because I've diddled around with it so
much trying to get it to work that it's probably in an entirely
nonsensical state, but whatev, here it is:

# ISC DHCP-Server Configuration
# /etc/dhcpd.conf
#
# LAN I want to server IP addresses to:
#
subnet 10.4.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
default-lease-time 86400;
max-lease-time 604800;
ddns-update-style none;
authoritative;
range 10.4.0.40 10.4.0.60;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
option domain-name "frop.org";
option domain-name-servers 10.4.0.101, 205.171.3.25;
option routers 10.4.0.101;
allow unknown-clients;
}

#
# the outside world:
#
subnet 71.193.95.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
}

You only have one subnet declared? On mine, dhcpd exits immediately
if there's a subnet on the machine that's not declared in dhcpd.conf.
That is new behavior, previous versions of dhcpd didn't do that...

Outside the machine: wear the t-shirt, for impressing the geeks. And
inside: use dnsmasq.

"Ubuntu" - an African word, meaning "Slackware is too hard for me".
