There is only 1 DHCP server which also acts as a DC. The reserved IP Address is NOT excluded from the scope. That will hopefully correct that problem once I update the settings. How about the other occasional conflicts with other IP's? What could be a cause for those IP's?

Before the IP address is assigned the DHCP checks if it already has been assigned. Is the reservation excluded from the scope? If you have reservations exclude the reservations from the scope!

There are about 50 machines in the office that I am in and occastionally I get complaints about IP Address conflicts how a machine tries to grab the IP Address of another machine. This also happens for a computer that has a reservation assigned to it. As for the reserved IP Address, when looking at the DHCP tables, it is modified to say "BAD_ADDRESS" for its Reservation Name and "This IP Address is already in use" for its description. In an attempt to try and correct the problem, I have deleted the leases on the DHCP server as well as did a Reconcile. Anyone experience this before? How can I resolve this problem?
