Loosing alias IPs

Hello,

I have a FreeBSD 6.2 server that get's his IP address from DHCP
(although this IP is static). I have also configured 3 more alias IP
addresses.

My problem is that anytime the DHCP lease is renewed (with the same IP
address always), one of the 3 aliases is lost.

Is this a bug? Or am I doing something wrong?

My setup is as follows:

the IP address that the server gets by DHCP is X.X.139.45

rc.conf
ifconfig_em0="DHCP"
ifconfig_em0_alias0="inet X.X.141.113 netmask 0xfffff000"
ifconfig_em0_alias1="inet X.X.142.124 netmask 0xfffff000"
ifconfig_em0_alias2="inet X.X.142.128 netmask 0xfffff000"


TIA
