Please try to start dhcpd manually, in foreground (-f option) and in
debug/verbose mode (-d option ); then let me know the messages.
Without all this messages it is difficult to find the problem.
Kind regards

P.S.: I've tried it on my pc with the following error:
** You must add a ddns-update-style statement to /etc/dhcpd.conf.
To get the same behaviour as in 3.0b2pl11 and previous
versions, add a line that says "ddns-update-style ad-hoc;"
Please read the dhcpd.conf manual page for more information. **
Is it your case?
