Be sure there is only one DHCP server on your LAN
Actually, there's nothing wrong with multiple DHCP servers, so long as they don't try to hand out the same addresses.
Not only that. They may give addresses on different nets, with different routing data, in a way that two computers on the same table and switch do not see each other. Once I saw such a problem in a class room with two dhcp servers; one of them giving bad data. It turned out that, when the students where trying vmware setups one of them installed the suse dhcp server in the guest linux, without knowing or forgetting it was there. The entire net (all classrooms and administrations pcs) were having very weird problems. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
