That is a general and very common issue related to failover dhcp. I remember it 
being one of the limitations of the isc dhcp failover. Maybe the newer 4.2 in 
pfSense 2.1 is any better. Do not know.

Maybe existing clients will get their lease approved, but new clients will not.

That is just a hypothesis though.

Seth
