The DHCP server is located by a broadcast. If two DHCP servers are
listening on your network and receive the DHCP request, I suppose they
will both try to reply. The one that replies first will win I suspect.
It may be possible to configure the DHCP software to explicity ignore
requests from certain MAC addresses?
