dhcp broadcasts send even if IP is static

Hi,
I am running some Ubuntu 6.06 Servers as VMs in VMware. I often  
change their IP-addresses from DHCP to static by editing the /etc/ 
network/interfaces. After # /etc/init.d/networking restart they get  
the static IP-address but still send broadcasts to DHCP-servers.  
After a reboot of the whole machine these broadcasts are stopped.

Is their a more UNIX-like solution for stopping the broadcasts?

Thanks in advance, Ingo
