Oh - I assumed you were configuring the machine as a DHCP client. There cannot be two DHCP servers on the same network (it might be possible, but I think it is too risky, and an administrative nightmare). If you had two of them, then what you can do is: Stop dhcpd on one of them. Remove that service altogether. Stop dhcpd on the other one also. Empty the leases file (if one exists, on my machine, it is /var/lib/dhcp/dhcpd.leases) - don't remove it. Start dhcpd. On windows machines, run winipcfg from start menu->run. Renew the lease on the interface. On linux machines, restart the network service. You should be ok after this.
