I simply coded the subnet as 10.1.1.0 and under that I told it to assign IP addresses in the range 10.1.1.2 to 10.1.1.2. Making both of these numbers the same ensures that I ALWAYS get the same IP address of 10.1.1.2 on the target when doing a telnet install of RH9 co I don't even have to ping the broadcast address to find out which IP dhcpd gave it.
