Any reason with the 4965 I can't get a DHCP address when connected to APs with 
any encryption? I can associate fine with either nwam or regular 
network/physical to WEP or WPA APs , but cannot get assigned any dhcp 
information. Configuring the ip info by hand gets me online.

It can associate and get DHCP info fine from open APs. 

I am using a 4965 in a Thinkpad T61 with 4gb ram.

This has happened since at least Nevada b93. I am now on Nevada b96 bfu'ed to 
9/01 current.
