bearing in mind that I've no idea what I'm talking about is it possible 
that the laptop connected to the server and got a really long lease on 
.253 before you added

host tony-lt {
hardware ethernet 0c:60:76:6c:e6:6f;
  	fixed-address 192.168.1.199;
  	}
probably there is a command to flush leases ?
