I got it figured out how to do dhcp forwarding across subnets.

Just in case anyone is curious. I downloaded the dhcrelay program from
the dhcp homepage. http://www.isc.org/prodcts/DHCP

dhcp-3.0x is required with the download but I only needed to run the
dhcrelay program. The command I used was:

/usr/sbin/dhcrelay -i eth1 -i eth2 dhcp_server_address

You have to specify the interfaces (-i eth2) that are sending the dhcp
broadcast and also specify the interface (-i eth1) the dhcp server is on.
By default, if no interfaces are specified then dhcrelay will listen on
all interfaces.

Just in case someone runs into a similar situation.
