My problem is that my dhclient never finds any DHCP servers on the Comcast network. The default dhclient that came with the installation simply times out, the other one that I 'make installed' according to the info posted at http://networking.ringofsaturn.com.Unix/ipnatdfirewall.php keeps complaining about my subnet(s). I would greatly appreciate any help, I have spent a lot of time on this without any luck.
