Re: dhcpd not assigning netmask correctly?

That's what I have, as a matter of fact:

host monarch {
         hardware ethernet 00:11:24:e3:60:98;
         fixed-address 192.168.1.9;
	 option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
         option host-name "monarch";
}

The problem seems to have gone away after fixing the subnet-mask for the
subnet:

# Set parameters for the 192.168.1.0/24 subnet.
  subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
  range 192.168.1.100 192.168.1.208;
  option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
  option routers 192.168.1.254;
}

Maybe that was it?  <shrug>  It worked before but was wrongly configured. 
Now it's rightly configured and works.  I'll take it.  

Thanks for your reply.  If it breaks again I'll report back.
