  hi all...  again...

  i sent this message to general questions but nobody got excited about
it.

  i just installed 6 on my t30 laptop. brand new. when trying dhclient i
get:

DHCPDISCOVER on fxp0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 5

this trys 6 times then this shows up:

No DHCPOFFERS received.
No working leases in present database - sleeping.

i run a tcpdump while requesting a lease and for every DHCPDISCOVER i get
this line:
2.  999913 IP 0.0.0.0.68 > 255.255.255.255.67: UDP, length 300

then a line of:

mac.number > mac.number, Unknown Ethertype (0xb20e), length 61:

i'm typing this because i can't get the machine on line...

restarted tha laptop many times and the dhcp server too. the dhclinet on
another older laptop works fine with the same server...

i really need this solved....  soon...  never seen it before... there is
nothing much on line about it. the same t30 laptop was working fine with
5.4...

thanks....
