    Hi,
    I just wanted to set a fixed IP for a given MAC address while leaving dynamic assignment for all others.
    So I setup the config file just as follows:

    ...

    [DHCP-RANGES]
    192.168.1.100-192.168.1.199

    [DHCP-OPTIONS]
    DNS_Server=62.211.69.150
    Router=192.168.1.51

    # This is the MAC address of the PC I'd like to statically assign an IP address
    [00:18:8b:25:46:52]
    IP_Addr=192.168.1.51
    Hostname=pcmaurizio

    ...

    But the server keeps on assigning dynamic address (192.168.1.100 and so on)

    The strangest thing is that I added another static assignment rule for another PC (giving a .53 address) and it worked while pcmaurizio kept on getting a .100 address.

    Pls help....

      Did you specify 192.168.1.51 as DNS Server also ?. Then this address needs to be static.
