Getting different ip's each time on DHCP

[Glenn Satchell]

Hi

You could try adding the setting

       one-lease-per-client flag;

       If this flag is enabled, whenever a client sends a DHCPRE-
       QUEST  for  a  particular lease, the server will automati-
       cally free any  other  leases  the  client  holds.    This
       presumes  that when the client sends a DHCPREQUEST, it has
       forgotten any lease not mentioned  in  the  DHCPREQUEST  -
       i.e.,  the  client has only a single network interface and
       it does not remember leases it's holding  on  networks  to
       which  it  is  not  currently attached.   Neither of these
       assumptions are guaranteed or provable, so we urge caution
       in the use of this statement.

Maybe this is only required for a little while to see if dhcpd can
repair itself.

Otherwise, are you able to upgrade to a newer release. There is 3.1.3,
4.1.0 and 4.1.1b3 to choose from. Going to 3.1.3 should be possible
without changing any of your configuration files. There have been lots
of failover bug fixes, and this may help.
