I have an entry in my dhcp3 dhcpd.conf which says that host xyz with certain MAC address should receive a fixed ip address. The server does not respect that entry and gives the IP address to another host with a different MAC address. I don't quite understand why it, dhcpd, should do that. Is normal behavior? tia-- Clarence W. Robison, P.E. robison@kimberly.uidaho.edu 208-423-6610
