Hi Ben
Thanks for the response - I followed up my post with an explanation
that I found a clue on Debian-User: I hadn't included Socket_Filtering
- I did so, recompiled and Hey Presto DHCP works ;-)

Hi
I have a PowerMac G4 (Gigabit ethernet) 450Mhz dual processor. It has
been working fine on the LAN using the standard 2.4.18 kernel.
Currently I'm still dual booting (MacOSX) using Yaboot 1.3.8.
I recompiled the kernel for SMP support and after a couple of tries
the
new kernel compiled and installed successfully. However, I seem to
have lost network connectivity - I can't ping the Router which is also
the DHCP server. I haven't found a way to post the output from dmesg
to the Mac side so that I could attach it but I believe the relevant

What kernel version ?
I've recompiled 2.4.18 with SMP support.
Regards
Clive
