Are there differences between the config files used to generate the
kernels shipped with Debian?  I am specifically interested in i386 versus
ppc. I have a ThinkPad and PowerBook installed and configured identically
for Debian 2.2 (potato) except for X server and when I try to run dhcpd
on the PowerBook I get:

socket: Protocol not available - make sure CONFIG_PACKET and CONFIG_FILTER
are defined in your kernel configuration!
exiting.

The ThinkPad works fine. Is there a known problem with the dhcp package
or is this really evidence that different kernel config options are
used on the two architectures? If the latter is this intentional and
why?

Thanks
