Why does DNS have 5 entries for one client? That's not normal.

Thanks,

Subject: SMS chasing clients

At %dayjob% we have users on 5 floors, and each floor has a VLAN assigned. It's 
common for a user to take their laptop to different floors and plug in, so it's 
not uncommon for DNS to have 5 entries for a single machine. What I'm running 
into is the SMS server doesn't always have the correct IP address of its 
clients - sometimes I have to kill some AD entries and then /flushdns on the 
SMS server for SMS to find where the hell the client currently is.

I don't know if changing DNS scavenging will help, or what. Anyone have any 
ideas?
