same ip to the same mac ?

When ever a request comes for an IP address from a client, server always tries to lease an IP address which a client has.
If it is free then it will lease the same IP address else tries another.

while parsing my dhcpd logs, I have noticed a strange thing: apparently,
the same ip gets somehow "reserved" for the same mac address

thus, the client always gets the same ip everytime it connects (which I
want to prevent)

settings are as following:

authoritative;
default- lease- time 600 ;
max- lease- time 10800;
ping- check true ;

shared- network 1 {
	3 x /24 classes
}

ddns- update- style none ;

where am I doing wrong ?


thanks for your time,

petre
