Possibly straying a bit off topic, but I've just moved across from isc-dhcp-server to kea-dhcp4-server. I've got a fairly straightforward setup: DHCP server handing out static and pool leases, plus a few doing TFTP/PXE booting. The ISC Kea instructions [2] are comprehensive so not a quick read. They provide a tool [3] to help migrate the config file which worked for me with minor tweaking.

Two issues.

First, I had to manually create /var/run/kea. This took a bit of tracking down as "service kea-dhcp4-server start" didn't produce any errors. It seems to be an issue that should have been solved [4] and from a glance the init.d file looks like it should check and create this so not sure why it was an issue for me.

Second, "service kea-dhcp4-server start" starts the process. "...status" is okay. But "service kea-dhcp4-server restart" and "...reload" brings up an error "start-stop-daemon: warning: this system is not able to track process names longer than 15 characters, please use --exec instead of --name". I haven't had time to look into this.
