Comment 5 for bug 43784

firestart.sh is generated by the firestart application. The generated code, as listed above, checks for dhcp3-server or for dhcpd.

Even if dhcp package is installed, the test in firestarter.sh fails because service name in init.d is not dhcpd but only dhcp.

If dhcpd is started directly it fails because it will miss the interfaces list to check, defined in /etc/default and will for all interfaces,

Correction should be done in source code, by maintainer or upstream, to address the correct service names used in Ubuntu Feisty.

In the meantime, work-around listed above linking the the service names, dhcp3-server or dhcp to dhcpd.
