I'm not sure where to run the dhcp client from.  I am assuming the dhclient
eth0 is the proper way to do it.  Please let me know if I am wrong.  After
running dhclient eth0, nothing has changed.

I do not have any cisco switches on this network, so that shouldn't be an
issue.  The cards are in a machine that I am simply trying to get up to run
as a router for my home network.  I had a redhat box configured to do this
before, but I switched over to debian and here is sit :)

Thanks

Clay
