Both at work and at home the problem stems from the dhcp server being on
a different subnet then what we are on.  The dhcp server is set to
server many subnets coming off a single router.

If I run a dhcp server actually on the same subnet, it works.  Grrrr. 
VMware and real windows,linux and mac machines don't have this problem.

I currently trying to script a way to get a dhcp address with either
dhcpcd or dhclient in linux, then use the assigned IP to dynamicly make
a dhcpd config file and kick off a local dhcpd server offering only that
one IP to my win4lin mac address only.  Let you know how that goes.
