I'm assuming that the domain controllers are single homed (one NIC in use on
one subnet)? But I can't understand why you would have a domain controller
configured for DHCP, unless I mis-read your post and don't know what you
mean by "it is configured for the host by DHCP"?

I looked up 192.38.0.1 using nslookup, however it returns nothing. Arin.net
says it belongs to RIPE, which is based in Amsterdam. So this does not make
sense as to why the DCs are registering this IP. Normally the interface's IP
will get registered into the DNS server that is configured in IP property's
zone, unless there's a mixture with ISP and local DNS servers.

ANy errors in the Event logs?

Can we take a look at an ipconfig /all from the DC that is regsitering this
IP please?

Thanks,
