Doug Barton e080f8cb9a ISC DHCP 4.2.x includes features that were not included in DHCP 4.1.x.
These include:

Processing the DHCP to DNS server transactions in an asynchronous fashion.
The DHCP server or client can now continue with it's processing while
awaiting replies from the DNS server.

There are a number of DHCPv6 limitations and features missing in this
release, which will be addressed in the future:

- DHCPv6 includes human-readable text in status code messages, in
English. A method to reconfigure or support other languages would
be preferable.

- The "host-identifier" option is limited to a simple token.

- The client and server can only operate DHCPv4 or DHCPv6 at a time,
not both. To use both protocols simultaneously, two instances of the
relevant daemon are required, one with the '-6' command line option.

**** To setup dhcpd, please edit %%PREFIX%%/etc/dhcpd.conf.
**** This port installs the dhcp daemon, but doesn't invoke dhcpd by default.
If you want to invoke dhcpd at startup, add these lines to /etc/rc.conf:
dhcpd_enable="YES" # dhcpd enabled?
dhcpd_flags="-q" # command option(s)
dhcpd_conf="%%PREFIX%%/etc/dhcpd.conf" # configuration file
dhcpd_ifaces="" # ethernet interface(s)
dhcpd_withumask="022" # file creation mask
**** If compiled with paranoia support (the default), the following rc.conf
options are also supported:
dhcpd_chuser_enable="YES" # runs w/o privileges?
dhcpd_withuser="dhcpd" # user name to run as
dhcpd_withgroup="dhcpd" # group name to run as
dhcpd_chroot_enable="YES" # runs chrooted?
dhcpd_devfs_enable="YES" # use devfs if available?
dhcpd_rootdir="/var/db/dhcpd" # directory to run in
dhcpd_includedir="<some_dir>" # directory with config-
files to include
**** WARNING: never edit the chrooted or jailed dhcpd.conf file but
%%PREFIX%%/etc/dhcpd.conf instead which is always copied where
needed upon startup.
