well, that could be a dangerous assumption.

I would recommend trying tcpdump, if nothing else to be sure that the
dhcp response is going out the right interface (use something like
"tcpdump -e -i ethX -l -n -s 1500 port 67 or port 68" -  the "-e" dumps
the link-layer, i.e. mac addresses, IIRC).


one thing occurs to me is that if you're suffering from network
congestion then possibly the dhcp response is being lost.
