If you have both DHCP servers on same wire (regardless how many subnets you have), it is first come first serve basis. The DHCP client sends out a DHCP request in broadcast mode, so both DHCP servers will pick the request and then send out the DHCP reply, again using broadcast mode (remember client doesn't have an address yet). DHCP client pick up the first DHCP reply it receives. My suggestion is to configure Linux DHCP server to ignore DHCP requests by matching excluded MAC addresses of Sun Rays thin clients.
