    We have a pfsense DHCP server setup

    We told the DHCP server to assign one of our servers an IP address based on its mac address

    In Windows 2003 Server if the network card TCP/IP is set to static you can tell the network card to listen on multiple IPs.  If it is set to DHCP you can not tell it to listen on Multiple IPs.

    Can you make PFSENSE DHCP tell this mac address to listen on more than one IP or is this not a possible feature?

      No, this isn't a possible solution using DHCP unless you have multiple MAC addresses.
