Are the static IPs outside of the range used by DHCP?
Did you stop the DNS server and remove the journal (.jnl) files before
adding in your static addresses?
You can preset your DHCP server to assign fixed IPs to some hosts,
that's another way of doing it. See the man file for details, but you
can identify a machine to give a fixed IP to by hostname or MAC.
e.g. Something *like* this in the DHCP configuration file:
host fixme {
hardware ethernet 00:00:21:25:92:fb;
fixed-address 192.168.1.180;
option host-name "fixme";
update-static-leases on;
}

No longer "secret", change it if that's important to you.
