Hi Greg,

Thank you for your reply.

As suggested, I modified the show_range.inc file to reflect the new behaviour
and I modified the Maintain.pm file in the following way:

[...]

### Added by UniMO
  if ($data->{allow_all_hosts}) {
    print $fh qq{\t\tdeny dynamic bootp clients;\n};
  } else {
### End
  foreach my $zone (@{$data->{zone}}) {
    my $z = $self->get_zone($zone);
    print $fh qq{\t\tallow members of "$z->{name}:$start:$end";\n};
  }
### Added by UniMO
  }
### End

  print $fh "\t\trange $start $end;\n";

  #### This pool allows all hosts registered in maintain to get
  #### an ip from it.  Looks at the allow_all_hosts column of
  #### ranges in the db.

### Commented out by UniMO
# if ($data->{allow_all_hosts}) {
#   print $fh qq{\t\tallow known clients;\n};
# }
### End

[...]

I had to add 'deny dynamic bootp clients;' for failover.

The only problem is that now I have to replicate dhcp options in the subnet that
previously were only in the group block.
