Gosh, this one hasn't come up for a while !
It's the Remote Access Service which asks for a pile of addresses
'just in case' another machine should call up. Either disable the RAS
service on the clients, or try this :
if (substring (option dhcp-client-identifier, 1, 3) = "RAS") {
ignore booting;
}
If you'd mentioned this in the first place you could have had the
answer sooner.
