This is probably more of a Windows question (apologies for any
offense), but I'm running a Sarge system with dhcp3-server, and maybe
someone out there has seen this or has an idea.

I have a new Dell Optiplex XP system (Broadcom NetXtreme NIC) I set up
as a DHCP client.  When I enable the LAN interface on it, hundreds of
lines of the following show up in the server syslog.

Nov  7 09:57:33 isurus dhcpd: DHCPDISCOVER from 00:12:3f:57:e3:f1 (vetintern) 
via eth0
Nov  7 09:57:33 isurus dhcpd: DHCPOFFER on 12.174.210.232 to 00:12:3f:57:e3:f1 
(vetintern) via eth0
Nov  7 09:57:34 isurus dhcpd: DHCPREQUEST for 12.174.210.232 (12.174.210.2) 
from 00:12:3f:57:e3:f1 (vetintern) via eth0
Nov  7 09:57:34 isurus dhcpd: DHCPACK on 12.174.210.232 to 00:12:3f:57:e3:f1 
(vetintern) via eth0
Nov  7 09:57:34 isurus dhcpd: DHCPDISCOVER from 00:12:3f:57:e3:f1 (vetintern) 
via eth0
Nov  7 09:57:34 isurus dhcpd: DHCPOFFER on 12.174.210.232 to 00:12:3f:57:e3:f1 
(vetintern) via eth0
Nov  7 09:57:35 isurus dhcpd: DHCPREQUEST for 12.174.210.232 (12.174.210.2) 
from 00:12:3f:57:e3:f1 (vetintern) via eth0
Nov  7 09:57:35 isurus dhcpd: DHCPACK on 12.174.210.232 to 00:12:3f:57:e3:f1 
(vetintern) via eth0

This continues indefinitely -- while the XP box continues to think
it's acquiring an address.  It continues until I disable the
interface.  Everything works if I give it a static address.

Any help appreciated.
