I am using Mandrake 10.1 distro. Recently i purchased
a linksys wireless network card and managed to get it
configured with the help of driverloader.
I am able to list the accesspoints with iwlist and
have set all the necessary parameters for wirless with
iwconfig. After this when i try to bring the wireless
interface with ifup, it fails to get an ip address.
The message i get in /var/log/messages point to
failure in dhclient. Could some one help me why i am
unable to get a ip address with dhclient.
