IPCop v2.1.9.    Seems to be working fine otherwise.

Occasionally a device on my GREEN will get handed an address from my BLUE network.   This is disconcerting.

In fact, one of the devices was supposed to have a fixed lease.    In this case it happened right after a reboot after applying latest patch Tuesday stuff for Windows 7.   (Yes, it's true I must win from time to time. . . ).   A reboot provided the correct IP.   This is a Dell of recent Vintage.

Prior to this it happened to a different box an older Toshiba L505-ES5010, rescued from a scarp pile, mended and now condemned to life as a "beater", (poor thing) while tinkering with different OS installs.   This one was free to accept any address.
