OK, trying to do this - but how. My dhcpd init script says this (an
extract obviously):

# Defaults
INTERFACES="eth0"

# Reads config file (will override defaults above)
[ -r /etc/default/dhcp ] && . /etc/default/dhcp

DHCPDPID=/var/run/dhcpd.pid

case "$1" in
        start)
                echo -n "Starting DHCP server: "
                start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --pidfile $DHCPDPID \
                        --exec /usr/sbin/dhcpd -- -q $INTERFACES


So I don't see why it is binding to ra0 and this worked fine when I had
an eth0 and eth1 - it looks like a bug to me, though I confess I am not
au fait enough with the Debian/Ubuntu model of these things to be sure.
