Replace the second IP address in the dhcp-range config with the keyword 
"static".


So

dhcp-range=192.168.1.10,192,168.1.20

means "give out DHCP leases on the 199.268.1.xxx subnet, anything not 
specifically listed gets an address from the range 
192.168.1.10-192,168.1.20"

dhcp-range=192.168.1.10,static

means "give out DHCP leases on the 199.268.1.xxx subnet, anything not 
specifically listed doesn't get an address.

HTH

Simon.
