Dear folks,
There is another (NT) dhcp server on this subnet; this one is only intended
to provide an address to the old JetDirect box (which it does).
But what is the server doing answering the request for 202.40.215.36?
Shouldn't it just ignore that machine?

1011 $ rpm -q dhcp
dhcp-3.0b1pl0-1
I thought that the server should keep quiet except for the machine with
MAC address 00:60:b0:2c:4e:a0.
Sorry for my ignorance of the protocol, please correct me if I'm wrong.
