Hello Ray,
O.K., let me try to be more specific, and answer you in the order of
your questions. Yes, when I say most of the time, it's just that. It
does work sometimes and assign addresses to the LAN, but most of the
time it doesn't. You asked " Is dhcpd 
running in the process list when lease-assignment fails?" I don't know
how to tell. I'm trying to learn Linux and Bering as best I can (I've
taken a college course, also), so please bear with me. If you tell me
how to give you more info, I'd be happy to do so. 
"Is dhcpd logging anything meaningful about these failures?" I don't
know how to tell. "Do you get any dhcpd-related errors 
reported during boot/init?" No, not that I can see. "Are the Dachstein
and Bering setups using the same internal LAN network addresses?" Yes,
whatever is provided by default. "Are the internal hosts running any
firewalling software (what OSs are involved, BTW)?" None at all, and the
OS's are W2K Professional and XP Professional. "If you assign a suitable

IP address to an internal host by hand, can it reliably communicate with
and through the Bering router?" I'll try that.

I'm just puzzled at what might be different about Dachstein, which works
perfectly, and Bering which seems to be so fussy. In both instances I
have done almost the bare minimum to get them running. I have
uncommented the correct driver, changed the passwords, and changed the
firewall's name. That's it. I haven't modified anything else. As I said,
if you want more info, I'd be happy to provide it. Please just let me
know how I can do so. I am happy to learn. Thank you.

Craig
