As an extra bit of info.

I just realized that this log message only appears when an INFORM comes in from
the option 82
enabled networks:

Jan 17 06:00:20 netreg1 dhcpd: data: "leased-address" configuration directive:
there is no lease associated with this client.

Jan 17 06:03:58 netreg1 dhcpd: DHCPINFORM from 69.176.184.94 via 69.176.184.1

I'm guessing its harmless, but would like to know if there is something I can do
to make it go away?
