I had the very same thing happen yesterday. (And have dhcpd report a lease
conflict on an earlier restart).
I had overlapping range statements, ie I wanted machines that initially
bootp, to get the same address no matter what the protocol. (Im cloning NT
boxes using a Linux 'nfs root' boot disk, so they bootp when Linux starts
but dhcp when NT finally starts).
So that the machines would get the same address, no matter the OS, I tried
to have the 'range' and the range dynamic-bootp to be the same. Unfortunatly
this seems to cause dhcpd to issue conflicting leases and get it self in a
knot. My problem went away when I changed the bootp and dhcp ranges not to
overlap. The problems then went away.
