One command you can try is "dhclient eth0", doing this you will see the output from dhclient. I did find an issue where the ipv6 kernel module needs loading maybe you can try loading this also.

I went crazy setting up every config file that the Rock Linux page mentioned, and I still am not having any luck.

Still, it isn't getting launched for some reason. Are there any obvious problems in what I've shared (other than some of the scripts being in redundant places)?
