Which builds exactly?

If this is something prior to build 106, then CR 6730161 could be at
fault here.

There are other possibilities, so please do look for errors in
/var/adm/messages.

It's possible to run dhcpagent (the DHCP client) in a debug mode that
will print a _large_ amount of data to the system log file.  To do
this, set up syslogd to log daemon.debug to a file, and then add lines
like this to your /etc/default/dhcpagent file:

        .DEBUG_LEVEL=3
        .VERBOSE=yes

(If dhcpagent is running, just pkill it to get rid of it.  That
configuration file is just read at start-up.)

Does a snoop show any traffic on the rum1 interface?  It should show
the DHCP messages going out, but if it shows no response, then that
points to a driver failure of some sort (perhaps something wrong with
the way WPA is used).
