Well, folks, I'm still having no success here. Here's an excerpt from my syslog files:
Mar 10 15:24:38 lambic dhclient-2.2.x: send_packet: Network is down Mar 10 15:24:53 lambic dhclient-2.2.x: DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 14 Mar 10 15:24:53 lambic dhclient-2.2.x: send_packet: Network is down Mar 10 15:25:07 lambic dhclient-2.2.x: DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 11 Mar 10 15:25:07 lambic dhclient-2.2.x: send_packet: Network is down Mar 10 15:25:18 lambic dhclient-2.2.x: DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 2 Mar 10 15:25:18 lambic dhclient-2.2.x: send_packet: Network is down Mar 10 15:25:20 lambic dhclient-2.2.x: No DHCPOFFERS received. Mar 10 15:25:20 lambic dhclient-2.2.x: No working leases in persistent database. Mar 10 15:25:20 lambic dhclient-2.2.x: execve (/etc/dhclient-script, ...): No such file or directory Mar 10 15:25:20 lambic dhclient-2.2.x: exiting. Mar 10 15:25:20 lambic dhclient-2.2.x: Sleeping. As far as I know, roadrunner in NYC requires no host name - the modem validates the mac address of the ethernet card. It works fine when I boot to NT..., so I'm pretty confident the network is good, but I'm really at a loss right now...
