That's what I figured, but I didn't know if the Linksys box had some skewed
notion of the DHCP standard that favored Windows clients.

Yes, the line is :
dhclient=YES    dhclient_flags="we1"

I do now!  I was playing with the 'media' option of ifconfig and set my
interface to 10base2 and started getting "network is down" errors.  Now I
have it set to AUI (weird, because it's a 10baseT connection, but the driver
won't accept '10baseT' or 'UTP') and those errors have gone away.  It still
doesn't work, though.  What I'm seeing is something like this:

dhclient: DHCPDISCOVER on 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 3
dhclient: DHCPDISCOVER on 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 7
dhclient: DHCPDISCOVER on 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 7
dhclient: DHCPDISCOVER on 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 9
dhclient: DHCPDISCOVER on 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 5
dhclient: no DHCPOFFERS received.
dhclient: no working leases in persistent database, sleeping

Thanks!
