It's probably something simple but I cannot get DHCP working on

We'd previously had an AirPort Base Station doing NAT/DHCP for this
office of 16 Macs. I just got the Xserve up and running and the
DHCP service is running, listening on en1 (the LAN).
I've specified 10.0.1.100-10.0.1.200 as the dynamic addresses. Each
Mac on the network ends up with a self-assigned IP.
If I manually assign an IP in the subnet 10.0.1.0/24, everything
works fine but if I set the client Mac to DHCP, they get 169.254...
Running a packet capture on the server - do you see the DHCP request
from the client Ethernet...
Are the Macs still behind the AirPort, and if so has it been changed
to a Bridge configuration?
Is there a known issue with DHCP and Bridge mode on the Airport Base
Stations? I just upgraded to the new extreme base station and now if
I need to reset the base station, I have to restart the server in just
the right order to get DHCP back for my clients on the base station,
even wired ones.
