Have you attempted to run dhclient in the foreground to see what
it's doing or possibly spitting to the terminal? Something like

dhclient -d -s 192.168.1.100 

This should force it to stay in the foreground and you can see what
is happening. I forget where dhclient logs. I
think /var/log/messages...but if you've been muckin' around a
lot you may have to grep for the dhclient entries.
