More over, took a peek at the "dhcpd.leases" log file which displayed
the following inspite of the "No subnet declaration for start
(0.0.0.0)." error:

# All times in this file are in UTC (GMT), not your local timezone.
This is
# not a bug, so please don't ask about it. There is no portable way to
# store leases in the local timezone, so please don't request this as a
# feature. If this is inconvenient or confusing to you, we sincerely
# apologize. Seriously, though - don't ask.
# The format of this file is documented in the dhcpd.leases(5) manual page.
# This lease file was written by isc-dhcp-V3.0pl1

lease 10.7.5.10 {
   starts 1 2003/11/24 02:37:22;
   ends 2 2003/12/02 02:37:22;

   next binding state free;

   uid "\001\000\000\206<\211\020";

lease 10.7.5.100 {
   starts 1 2003/11/24 16:37:40;
   ends 2 2003/12/02 16:37:40;

   hardware ethernet ##:##:##:##:##:##;
   uid "\001\000@\0059D\303";
   client-hostname "Tina";
}

Please tell me where I may be going wrong.. TIA..
