your macintosh side has nothing to do with anything, so dont worry about that. pump
is the new dhcp that redhat and yellow dog aquired and have abondoned dhcp ( not
the dhcpd server ( big difference )). is this machine a stand alone on the network
? like has its own ip and that one only. becuase you where saying about multiple ip
addresses. 1 nic 1 address. to prove the to yourself the network card works and
those things. set it up manually and do a test. like this
[root@scumserv /root]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=static
BROADCAST=192.168.0.255
IPADDR=192.168.0.30
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
NETWORK=192.168.0.0
ONBOOT=yes
[root@scumserv /root]#
anyway... good luck i will be on for awhile if you write back.
