Please bear with me...
 
I have three ethernet cards in a Linux 2.0.33 box. They are named
eth0, eth1 and eth2. I would like to use DHCP on eth2 (the other two
cards have separate networks attached to them).

I compiled and installed the software. Running "dhclient eth2"
produces

Listening on Socket/eth2
Sending on Socket/eth2

Then I get a whole pile of ,

"DHCPACK in wrong transaction."

messages and eventually,

"DHCPOFFER in wrong transaction."
"NO OFFERS received."

I have tried hacking the dhclient.conf file as well as just going with
the defaults by not having a conf file in /etc. In either case, the
results are the same.

One other question, in the sample dhclient.conf file, the line send
dhcp-client-identifier appears to be the hardware address of the card
but it has an extra byte. Why?

I know the card works. The ISP is commercial as opposed to
experimental so I doubt the problem is at their end. I have not found
the documentation extremely helpful. 

Any suggestions. Help is greatly appreciated.

Many thanks,
