I've a hard time configuring WHEREAMI.

I understand I have to define a /etc/whereami/detect.conf file.
Here is mine:

    ------------------------------
    set DEBUGWHEREAMI 1
    default unknown
    testmii eth0 lan
    if lan
      set INTERFACE eth0
      testdhcp '*.*.*.*' dhcp
     fi
    if dhcp
      testdhcp    195.220.37.*       esisar
    fi
    ------------------------------

Aparently this part is working alright since  the following
command "whereami --debug --noactions" returns this:

    ****************> Test successful - adding locations: esisar
    *******location: esisar
    esisar
    dhcp
    lan

I also understand, I may need to define a /etc/whereami/whereami.conf
file.
Here it is:

    ------------------------------
    =esisar setresolver search esisar.inpg.fr nameserver 195.220.37.110
    ------------------------------

But this does not seem to be working.  When I reboot I cannot get into
my account.

The same thing happens when I use an empty whereami.conf

Questions: 

 1. Any ideas about what's going wrong?

 2. How can I trace what's going on exactly?

 3. I'm not sure about the files I should place in
    /etc/whereami/tests.  Should I set up files like 90dhcp or
    60arpfind and place them there?

 4. I'm using an HP laptop (Omnibook XE3 + Debian 2.4.18) on a docking
    station and I cannot manage to identify whether my laptop is in
    its docking base by checking the output of lspci for 'CMD'.  I
    also tried a diff between a saved 'lspci' (without docking base)
    and the current 'lspci' (with docking base), but there was no
    difference at all...  Any ideas on how to detect the docking station?

Thanks for your help.
