[Lula] dhcpd question

[Steve Glasser]

Hi group,

I thought that when you assigned a fixed-address to a machine in your
dhcpd.conf file the address had to be from the IP pool assigned to
dynamic dhcp clients.  Perhaps that is not the case as I have the
following in the messages log:

Jun 20 10:32:22 server5 dhcpd: Dynamic and static leases present for
192.168.2.241.
Jun 20 10:32:22 server5 dhcpd: Remove host declaration HPAA18CC or
remove
192.168.2.241
Jun 20 10:32:22 server5 dhcpd: from the dynamic address pool for
192.168.2/24
Jun 20 10:32:22 server5 dhcpd: DHCPREQUEST for 192.168.2.241 from
00:14:38:aa:18:cc via eth0
Jun 20 10:32:22 server5 dhcpd: DHCPACK on 192.168.2.241 to
00:14:38:aa:18:cc via
eth0

dhcpd.conf below:
<snip>
subnet 192.168.2.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
  option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
  option routers 192.168.2.1;
  default-lease-time 3600;
  max-lease-time 7200;
  option domain-name "foo.local";
  option domain-name-servers  192.168.2.5;
  
    pool {
       range 192.168.2.100 192.168.2.254;
#       deny members of "PXE";
#       deny members of "Etherboot";
        }

        host  NPID11624 {
                hardware ethernet  00:30:6E:D1:16:24;
                fixed-address 192.168.2.252;
                option host-name "NPID11624";
        }
        host  HPAA18CC {
                hardware ethernet  00:14:38:AA:18:CC;
                fixed-address 192.168.2.241;
                option host-name "HPAA18CC";
        }
}

I thought the fixed-address IPs had to be within the dhcp address
pool--they are still assigned by the dhcp server.  If the gurus could
educate me I would appreciate me very much.  Thanks,
