First...are you sure the correct drivers are loading (use lsmod to
check.) Be sure to rule out networking problems. Have you checked your
routing table (use 'netstat -nr')? Can the card see the default gateway
that the dhcp server is offering? Clearly, with 2 different cards on 2
different networks, you are going to have a complex routing table.
I wonder if your problem might also be affected by the order in which
the runlevel startup scripts in /etc/rc.d/* execute. You probably want
to bring up pcmcia, then the card needing dhcp (eth0?), then the second
network card (eth1?), then the network configuration script at boot
time. If the order that the scripts execute has changed between major
releases, as they have here, then you could be affected. I'd carefully
check to see which scripts are executing and whether the order and
timing of them is what you need.

I'm running a laptop with 2 pcmcia network cards on severn. One
card (
A ) is connected to a cable modem - optimum online - the other ( B ) to
the lan. ool uses dhcp, so A is set to uses dhcp. All worked great,
until severn.
dhcp no longer works. I've switched the cards. Both work on the lan
with static ip addresses. I've flushed iptables. I even brought in
another laptop. Same result. But...if I connect ool directly to a severn
workstation, it works fine. So it's only laptops.
Something's screwed up. Don't think it's dhclient or dhcpd - tried
both. Here's a snippet from ethereal of traffic over the card. It's
sending out discovers and getting back offers. But it doesn't seem to
see them. Is dhclient responsible for seeing them? Since the workstation
had the same dhclient rpm, I assume it's a network script problem
related to pcmcia.
Does anyone have a pcmcia network card that works with dhcp under severn?
I sure don't.
thanks for any help
