Server Holding onto 2 IP Addresses

Hello,
I am doing some DNS tricks with one server using NSI Doubletake s/w. For
somereason when I put back my DNS to the original order, one server still
holds the IP address of 2 machines(the localserver and the other one I am
using for same functionality). I have tried to run ipconfig /flushdns and
registdns but it will not release the other IP address. The only way I have
found to fix this, is to disable the NIC and re-enable it. Can someone point
me in the right direction on how to fix this problem so my server does not
hold two ip addresses.
Please advise?

This is not an issue with DNS, it is an issue with the server itself
having two IPs. I assume DoubeTake is adding the second IP to the box
as a virtual IP that clients are connecting too. It sounds like a
question you should pose to DoubleTake, since that second IP should be
unbound to the NIC once it is taken out of service.
