[Dnsmasq-discuss] not giving name because the name exists..

[B. Cook]

2.72 on CentOS 6.x latest..

not giving name hp6-216.phs.pcsd to the DHCP lease of 10.20.13.116 because
the name exists in /etc/dnsmasq.d/hosts with address 10.20.15.234

This is the literal error..

I have printers in the 10.20.15/20 subnet for that building.. I have them
listed in the hosts file (addn-hosts=/etc/dnsmasq.d/hosts) for NMS..

What makes that error appear and disappear?

I'm also not sure why it thinks its IP should have changed..

 grep hp6-216 /var/lib/misc/dnsmasq.leases
1434579174 00:01:e6:a7:f3:a1 10.20.13.116 hp6-216 *

And this is its dnsmasq entry:

dhcp-host=00:01:e6:a7:f3:a1,10.20.15.234,hp6-216 #net:phs # phs216_hp6mp

I would greatly appreciate any insight..
