DHCP/SQL Problem ?

I run a small network behind an ISA Server and using DHCP to assign NAT
addresses (192.168.x.x)
I have "reserved" 5 addresses for VPN access.
All seems ok, except one of my consultants set up a SQL Server and instance
of the application we support ( a web app) and had several others connect to
it.
They all appear in the DHCP Active Leases, including the "host" with valid
IP addresses, showing their MAC addresses under "Unique ID".
But the host also has several (equal to the number of connections)
additional IP addresses assigned, showing "RAS" under "Unique ID" (as the 5
reserved VPN addresses do).
They are not using RAS, that I know of.
Can anyone explain this to me and/or tell me how to stop it ?
Thanks in advance

Dallas, TexasI had the same problem too, its nothing but the users of those computers (be
lieve you're using XP) created a connection to accept incoming calls. Once I
removed those connection's, the Unique ID started showing the MAC address i
nstead of "RAS" (like anyot
her computer on the network)
Hope it helps
