No Failover works, Failover does not work

OK, so I switched the peer ports to 519 and 520.
Now, when I try to get an address, these messages were recorded.  (Franklin
is the primary DHCP Server, the MAC Address listed is my machine, and the IP
10.153.22.1 is the router IP for the VLAN that is configured as the relay
agent.):*

*messages:May 17 21:18:37 franklin dhcpd: DHCPDISCOVER from
00:12:3f:1a:60:c3 via 10.153.22.1: not responding (recovering)
messages:May 17 21:18:42 franklin dhcpd: DHCPDISCOVER from 00:12:3f:1a:60:c3
via 10.153.22.1: not responding (recovering)
messages:May 17 21:18:50 franklin dhcpd: DHCPDISCOVER from 00:12:3f:1a:60:c3
via 10.153.22.1: not responding (recovering)
messages:May 17 21:19:06 franklin dhcpd: DHCPDISCOVER from 00:12:3f:1a:60:c3
via 10.153.22.1: not responding (recovering)

So which machine isn't responding?  the machine trying to get an address
(the MAC Address) or the cisco router with the IP?
