Boot single-user, invoke the dhcp program from a console in "non-daemon"
mode, and watch.
how do I do this (found nothing in the man page)
For dhcpd, consider flags -d -tf and perhaps -play.
Also, consider running under strace.
I am talking about dhclient not dhcpd
For lowest-level packet trouble,
use a program such as tcpdump or ethereal to check what goes over the
wire.
used ethreal an have not found anything that looks like an error...
this is what I get in /var/log/messages:
