It isn't. I failed to mention that the subnet is 255.255.255.0.
Anyhow, when looking further I discovered that DHCPD runs chrooted. So I
looked for another dhcpd.conf. When I found this, everything was like
before, but then I looked into some other files in that directory, like
host.conf and hosts. This last file was the culprit. There was an entry
for the box, with that wrong address. After removing this from the
/etc/hosts file, and restarting dhcpd, all is OK now.
