Did you set up TCP/IP? Did you fix SETUP.CMD?

In TCP/IP Configuration, on the Network tab, select your interface and
check the "Automatically, using DHCP" box.

Although it doesn't affect acquiring the DHCP lease, you have to fix
your \MPTN\BIN\SETUP.CMD file if you're using 127.0.0.1. Move the
"ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1" line so it is *after* the "dhcpstrt ..." line.

If it still doesn't work, where does the error occur? Is there a
"dhcpstrt ..." line in your \MPTN\BIN\SETUP.CMD file? Do you get a
DHCPSTRT error message during bootup? Does DHCPMON show an error?
