[plug] dhcp configuration

I have a rhl7.2 server with two NICs, 1 for the internal network and 1 
connected to a cisco adsl router.  I want to configure the internal nic
(eth0) for dhcp and leave the other nic (eth1) static.

I've created a dhcpd.conf file that consist of 
/etc/dhcpd.conf
subnet 192.168.3.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
        option routers                  192.168.3.1;
        option subnet-mask              255.255.255.0;

        option domain-name              "mmtnetworks.com.au";
        option domain-name-servers       192.168.3.1 203.153.224.41;

        range 192.168.3.10 192.168.3.100;
}

end of dhcpd.conf
Yet, when I go to restart dhcpd I get an error message stating I need to
configure the subnet address for eth1 (192.168.2.5).
Can anyone shine some light on this subject as to why the other NIC
requires a setting.
