Have you done an ifconfig on 5, and seen if there's any collisions, etc?
Another possibility is that *you* haven't changed, but someone else has
put a piece of hardware on the LAN that's trying to get that IP, or has it
configured for that IP.

     mark, who *really* wishes that the network folks would give
              their hardware IPs by MAC, not broadcast
