[et-mgmt-tools] DHCP Troubleshooting

[Ole Ersoy]

Pablo,

In the process of doing what you described below, I noticed the the mask on my network card was set to 255.255.255.240, and on the dhcp configuration I have 255.255.255.0.  So I changed the mask on on the network card's configuration (/etc/syscconfig/networking/device/eth0-cfg - For any future thread followers) and now it gets a lease!  Thanks again for all the troubleshooting tips.
