Hello Pak Fajar.
Fyi, iam in that situation right now. My office run 2 DHCP server in
same subnet, one for windows & another on LTSP server. in the first
run, everything seems work perfectly.

But then, every first booting in the morning, one client always
dropped into kernel panic message tell that i have dual dhcp server.
It's happened only in one client and changed, and another client keep
booting perfect into X window.

Even i add (not authoritative;) in dhcpd.conf,
--as in this link: http://riverdale.k12.or.us/mailarchives/k12osdig/1588.html
--and this link:
http://www.etherboot.org/wiki/usermanual?DokuWiki=c40b36801f070ad0033fb6a5b693ee84#setting_up_a_dhcp_daemon

it's still happened.
As in /var/log/messages log is displayed DHCPNAK messages.

I still don't know if there's any missconfiguration, but iam sure i
already separate mac & ip address on each dhcp server.

Hope there's a good solution for this.

Thanks and sorry for poor english.
