I actually do not know for certain what the company is using to dish out
its IPs (UNIX vs. NT). I'm just a regular user on the network, and don't
admin anything. I would say it is very likely that the DHCP server *is*
NT based, however, given that it seems most everything else running the
network is NT-based. This would be a valid answer, however, except that
like I said, I had no problems getting an IP by manually running dhcpcd
when I was running Red Hat 6.0. (so in other words, the only thing that
has changed from when it used to work until now is that I'm now running
Mandrake 6.1)
