where to find dhcp leases?

[jpgeerets]

hi
im running a dhcp3 server on ubuntu.
now i want to see who is using my ip-addresses.
there is a file:
/var/lib/dhcp/dhcpd.leases
but this one is empty.

can any tell me where i can find the active leases?

thanks in advanced

That's where active leases are stored for me. Are you sure there are active leases on that server?

tail /var/log/dhcpd.log

[jpgeerets]

well,
i know my clients get an ip-adres of the server.
it's the only dhcp on this subnet.

i can not find the file you named.

any ideas?

sudo lsof -p `cat /var/run/dhcp3-server/dhcpd.pid`

This will list all files your dhcp server has open. This is my output:
