Quoting "Fred J." <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Did you tried them separately, one at a time. This way you can find out if the
router and the W2K server are running DHCP.

hope this link will help with DHCP.
Best regards

after changeling the file /etc/network/interfaces, I was able to bring
up the downed eth* but why the relative dhcp package did not do this
like it did with the up eth* on boot-up time?
my /etc/network/interfaces now looks like this
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.101
netmask 255.255.255.0
auto eth1
iface eth1 inet dhcp
Hello,
are both interfaces in the same network? If not, maybe something
with the DHCP-Server connected to your eth0 is wrong?
Are other DHCP-Clients in the same network running properly?

Mirco

I am sorry, I will not be able to answer those question as my
networking experience is very primitive.
but I can give the following info:
using cat5 cables
from adsl modem/router to eth1 in the debian box testing/2.6.13
from eth0 in debian to a switch
from the switch to a w2k box
so, maybe I can say, both interfaces are not in the same network,
eth1 is the external
eth0 is the internal
as with the DHCP server/clients, not sure even how to go about them,
I started reading the man pages and was lost totally without knowing
what the big picture is and how the packages fill in, not to mention
discouraged with the looooong pages.
