I have had no luck getting linux to make a dhcp connection.  The
connection works fine under win95 (same box, dual boot).  No matter
what I do I can't seem to receive a DHCPOFFER.  I am definitely
communicating with the cisco 675 unit since I can look at it's
statistics over a serial cable and watch the transmitted and received
packets increase.  Also its lan activity light is flashing.  I have
tried both versions 2 and 3 of the ISC client software with linux
kernel 2.2.4.  I also tried version 2 with 2.0.32.  All to no avail.  I
have one line in my /etc/dhclient.conf.  That is

interface "eth0" {}

mainly because I got tired of it trying to activate the lo interface.
The client script was copied to etc from client/scripts/linux.  The
rest of this message shows the output from version 2 and version 3 of
the client.  I've also tried other non ISC linux dhcp clients without
success.  My phone company is US West, my provider is teleport.com and
my ethernet card is a 3c509b etherlink III isa.  

By the way, there is an error on line 89 of common/lpf.c in the 3/26
version 3 code where an = should be an ==.

Any ideas?

Version 2 Output.
