Some ideas and things to check:

0) You've possibly never run "cobbler sync", as that's needed to create
and update the file.
1) You might possibly have the dnsmasq module enabled instead in
/etc/cobbler/modules.conf, in which case it won't be generating
/etc/dhcp.conf but instead the configuration file for dnsmasq.   The ISC
version is the default.
2) You might also have not restarted cobblerd yet after making the above
changes?
3)  What version of cobbler is installed?  (rpm -q cobbler)
