Ah, then 140.1.0.1 must be within the shared network that defines the client 
subnet(s). So something like :
shared-network "blah" {
  subnet 140.1.0.0 255.255.255.252 {
  }
  subnet 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 {
    blah blah options
    range blah;
  }
}
That allows the server to see 140.1.0.1, associate that address with a shared 
network, and thus find the pools/ranges it can allocate to clients.

And in case you hadn't realised, you can't use the same GI-Addr in more than 
one shared network.  If you do, then the server can't use it to select a unique 
shared network.
