[MLUG] dhcpd.conf question

[Scott Hussey <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

All,
  When starting dhcpd, it asks that you define a configuration for
every subnet that you are attached to. I'm building a computer to act 
as a gateway for a beowulf cluster and thus to dole out dhcp addresses to
the computers in the cluster. However, since the external interface
on the gateway should not respond to DHCP requests, its probably best 
I don't dole out addresses to people requesting them on the external subnet.
If I just create a subnet configuration in dhcpd.conf for xxx.xxx.xxx.0/24, but
leave it blank, should it behave itself when machines on the external
subnet broadcast DHCP requests? Thanks.
