You can delete leases with ISC also, it just takes a little more work (and
carefully!).  When this happens, the clients will not be able to renew (with
a DHCPREQUEST) and they will continue to try until their leases expire.
Then they will send a DHCPDISCOVER and get a new lease (if possible).  The
DHCP protocol doesn't appear to have any way to force a new lease, but
perhaps NT DHCP has some tricky RPC thing it does to force it (probably not
though).

Funny coincedence, we used to use NT DHCP, and now we're using Linux, wonder
why...

I used to have a MS dhcp server on a WindowsNT server.
This had an option to delete a lease, and i always thought that would force
the client  to ask for a new lease.
