Unfortunately, you'll have to do a big no no and manually remove them.

Stop the server.

Edit the lease file

Restart the server.

It's very important to stop the server first

When I saw this on our network, it was a result of having bootp enabled in
the dhcp.conf file. Unless you have a need for bootp, use a "deny bootp;"
at the top of your dhcpd.conf file.

I too am interested in removing those entries. I debated just removing
them from the dhcp.leases file, but was afraid what may happen those
addresses were leased to a second device. Anyone have any suggestions
about this?
