I'm guessing the eth1 side is static as well.  On my network all servers are assigned
static IP's.  This makes sense so you can remotely connect to your server for Webmin,
ssh, etc.  So in this setup dhcpd is broke as it only wants to listen to eth1 by
default.  And as Gavin noted there is no declaration for the network on eth1, so it
ignores all requests on eth1.  This I assume is also breaking eth0 requests.  I get bit
by this all the time as both sides have a static, and I build adapter teams for the LTSP
network name something like Bond0, and I then have to manually modify the file for where
dhcpd listens.
