ISC-DHCP-server service failed to start after the installation of NetSUS
Dear, sir / madam
I installed NetSUS last night. The next day when I woke up, I found that my clients are not able to get IP address from my ISC-DHCP service. I check the status of the ISC-DHCP service and it is failed. I noticed that after the installation of NetSUS, there is a new dhcpd.conf file created (/etc/dhcpd.conf
).
Here is the installation brief log of NetSUS.
sudo ./NetSUSLPInstaller_5.0.1.run
Verifying archive integrity... All good.

The NetSUSLP has been installed.
Verify that port 443 and 80 are not blocked by a firewall.
Note: IP Helpers are required if using NetBoot across subnets.
The NetBoot folder name can not contain any spaces
To complete the installation, open a web browser and navigate to https://server:443/.
If you are installing NetSUSLP for the first time, please follow the documentation for setup instructions.
Here is the status of my ISC-DHCP-Server

It must have been caused by NetSUS. Seems the ISC-DHCP service has never failed before. I want to use both NetSUS and ISC-DHCP. Thank you.
