Reserved ip in 192.168.x.x range for CenOS 5 (Samba Server)

loses samba clients due to eth0 losing it's ip.



eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:04:61:72:AB:98 inet addr:169.254.66.122 Bcast:169.254.255.255 Mask:255.255.0.0
....


whack, 169.254.x.x is the 'auto-IP' range of self assigned IPs used if a system can't reach the DHCP server. I wasn't aware Linux did this, I've only seen it on MS Windows.
