In some cases you are prompted to save your config before you reload, that
re-creates the startup config.. Just say NO. In the later versions of IOS
if a router is started fresh without a config the primary ethernet interface
will aquire an IP address via DHCP. When you do a "show run" it looks just
the same as a manually configured address.. Those are the only two things I
can think of that may be causing this.. I am sure there are other "freakish"
things but I don't know of them.

Some times when I wr erase a router, it has some of the old configuration
upon reboot. Any one know why? The ip addresses of the interfaces remain
some times.
