After installing the new port  the directory 

/var/run/dhcpd

was not owned by dhcpd user, so no pid file was written --> status and stop 
don't work.

also the directory 

/var/db/dhcpd 

was not owned by dhcpd user, so lease files where not modifyable by dhcpd.

After changing ownership, the pid file in /var/run/dhcpd is ok, but the lease 
file in /var/db/dhcpd is still owned by root. What a mess.
