Not configured to listen on any interfaces! and No subnet declaration for start

Ah ha - in that case you don't need the 'start' parameter. Just run
/usr/sbin/dhcpd

You could always install the distro's dhcpd rpm to get the startup
script, or look on another similar system and copy it over, or write
your own...
