ubuntu server and ip changes

Okay, this is really odd. I just installed ubuntu server (feisty). And every night . . . it changes it's ip address (to one ending in 239) to matter what it is the day before.

So . . . yeah. Odd.

The machine is set up to use a static ip address (I set it in /etc/network/interfaces). No idea what could be going weird.

here's the interfaces file (more or less) in case it matters, but it's really boring:

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto eth0
address (number)
netmask (numbers)
gateway (numbers)

That's it. Nothing fancy.

Anyone?
