You read the source for the Hill's reporting, but you didn't read the salient information in either one.
"But on one occasion, The Daily Beast has learned, Guccifer failed to activate the VPN client before logging on. As a result, he left a real, Moscow-based Internet Protocol address in the server logs of an American social media company, according to a source familiar with the government’s Guccifer investigation."
So, because the persona of Guccifer 2.0 connected to social media (either Twitter or WordPress, probably) without turning on their VPN, we can be confident that the Guccifer 2.0 persona, who Roger Stone admitted to being in contact with, and who claimed to be WikiLeaks' source, was a Russian located at the GRU. And that determination has nothing to do with the DNC servers. That's just based on his interactions with social media and WikiLeaks.
So, unless you can tell me how Seth Rich was once using a computer in Moscow, that theory should be finally, totally debunked.
Incidentally, we already also know that Sean Hannity is in direct contact with Julian Assange. So this whole Seth Rich disinformation campaign is really just down to a couple of well-placed people, to include Guccifer 2.0, Sean Hannity, and Julian Assange.
