man dhcpd.conf
man syslog

In /etc/dhcpd.conf:
- if local7 is already in use there is local0 through local7 to choose from.

log-facility local7;


In /etc/syslog.conf
- you can use a lower facility, eg notice or err instead of debug to
  get fewer messages.
- older versions of syslog must use tabs, not spaces

# DHCP
local7.debug             /var/log/dhcp/dhcpd.log


then touch /var/log/dhcp/dhcpd.log
restart syslog
restart dhcpd
