Hello, Thanks for all the help. I got it going.
This machine has 2 NICs with eth0 as gateway and eth1 for LAN.
I had temporarily disabled eth0. I think it was this that was creating confusion for DM.
The moment I enabled eth0 the login screen was there. I put back firewall and iptables and it works fine.
I am not sure whether my conclusion are correct.
I wonder why when the client is basically able to boot from the server using eth1 there is a confusion for DM ?
Thanks
Varun
