this is normal behavior -- in version 2 of the server, "static" or
fixed-address leases (known by a host declaration with a fixed-address
parameter) are not written to the leases file.  If you think about this for
a moment you can see why:  except for the lease start and stop times, which
are of only historical interest, there is no benefit to recording static
leases as the client always receives the same address.
