I have a problem with my dhclient on my debian box.

It keeps picking up an IP address and then losing it in a few seconds.

Apr 30 20:31:40 localhost dhclient: DHCPACK from 192.168.1.1
Apr 30 20:31:40 localhost dhclient: bound to 192.168.1.10 -- renewal in 1800 seconds.
server says:
Apr 30 20:18:30 localhost dhclient: DHCPREQUEST on eth0 to 192.168.1.1 port 67
Apr 30 20:18:30 localhost dhclient: DHCPACK from 192.168.1.1

Within seconds of this last entry, it's back to 169.254......
But the network works.

nothing in dhclient.conf.
nothing odd in dhclient.leases.
nothing odd about the dhcp server.
but I keep getting this strange behaviour.

my dhclient.leases file is 100% correct
lease {
  interface "eth0";
  fixed-address 192.168.1.10;
  option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
  option routers 192.168.1.1;
  option domain-name-servers 192.168.1.2;
  option domain-name "tacocat.net";
  option dhcp-lease-time 3600;
  option dhcp-message-type 5;
  option dhcp-server-identifier 192.168.1.1;
  renew 1 2006/5/1 00:54:08;
  rebind 1 2006/5/1 01:16:38;
  expire 1 2006/5/1 01:24:08;
}

Even the dates at the end indication that nothing should be expiring anytime soon. I'll assume that there is always a renew attempt at 1/2 the dhcp-lease-time? But There's no reason it should be this messed up.

What can I look at next?
