With the -d option, I discovered that failure occurs on the DHCP_DISCOVER call. This is really odd. Like I said, my dhcp server has a debian box and 2 windows boaxes connecting to it and they run fine. Do I need to do anything before I attempt to run dhcp eth0? The only thing that I have done is enabled the network card by loading the tulip driver with modprobe. Is there something else I should do first? > >: Was there supposed to be a dhclient file in the /sbin directory, or was >: it removed and the OFF_inet.dhcp_eth0 file was not updated?? > >What version are you running. I just looked at both the i686-exclusive >and x86-build cds that I have and OFF_inet.dhcp_eth0 used dhcpcd. I have noticed that both the binary and build CD have dhcpcd but the OFF_inet.dhcp_eth0 file uses dhclient in the script. You may want to either update the script or add the dhclient file back into the sbin directory. Is there a rc4 iso image that I can get at? Maybe using a different image will be of help? Marcus
