I've run into this issue before. Check your /etc/cobbler/dhcp.template. I've had my local version get moved to dhcp.template.rpmsave, and cobbler will install the default one. If you define a custom subnet for example, dhcp will refuse to start (cobbler defaults to 192.168.1/24).

/var/log/messages should show you why dhcpd is failing to start as well.

According to git, the template file has been marked as "config(noreplace)" in the RPM since 10/25/2006. So upgrades should make a ".rpmnew" but they should not install the existing one and move your old one to where it is not used. Only files just marked "config" should have the ".rpmsave" behavior. I'm not sure why you're seeing that exactly?

Of course /var/log/messages is a great place to look regardless.

Michael,

Good news/bad news.  0.6.1 seems to have resolved the below issue.  Now,
however, dhcpd does not restart (Warning: dhcpd restart failed) on a
cobbler sync.  My settings file looks good and (I swear!) nothing
changed other than me installing 0.6.1.  doing a ps on dhcpd shows it
running since yesterday.  Has anyone else noticed this?
