2009/9/3 Brian J. Mc Hugh bjmch...@aya.yale.edu:
I went in the file /var/log/dmesg and didn't find dhclient.
Does that signify failure?
You don't need to find dhclient in dmesg - the question is, what shows
up in dmesg after ifup calls dhclient?
About the Windows machine problem - try the Windows driver in ndiswrapper.

No DHCPOFFERS received.
No working leases in persistent database - sleeping.
What's visible in dmesg after dhclient?
Also, to rule out hardware failures - does the card work under
Windows? (4318s break rather easily.)
