 I feel its some thing to do with Windows XP. Does any one know the fix?

You have your dhcpd configured to use 'dynamic dns' function.

When the laptop gets an address via dhcp, the dhcpd sends a message to dns
to update the dns name to the new IP address.
Some windows clients can do this also if the option is configured in the
Windows DNS settings.  Here I think it is your server as the log line comes
from dhcpd.

In this case, the name TM25.dhcp.company.com already exists so dhcpd reports
this.
This may be due to a static entry in DNS zone files or because the laptop already
had an entry configured earlier.

You can check by doing a 'dig TM25.dhcp.company.com' and see what results you 
get from your DNS - you should see the name resolve to the IP address of the
laptop.

Regards,

Tony

Your first post included 'ipfw show' output.  Did you figure
out what was going on there?  Make sure that port 53 is
available, perhaps on both TCP and UDP.
As you see, I am no expert here.  I did dig(1) some of
the information in your last post, and based on that and
the content of your error messages, think that you need
some A records, for starters...
