FreeNAS on Microsoft VirtualPC 2007 does not get proper DHCP address.

I have installed VirtualPC 2007 on one of my Desktops. IBM ThinkCenter P4 3.0 GHz, 1 GB RAM.

I have created and can run concurrently 3 Windows 2000 Virtual Desktops.

When I boot FreeNAS by capturing the iso, everything seems to work fine except the IP address. I change the networking to use DHCP. That part processes normally.

When I check the address , it is 192.168.1.250.

My W2K machines aquire a DHCP addres from the same network as the host pc (XP). 198.205.x.x

Does anyone know why I am getting this address in FreeNAS instead of a “real” local network address
