[ale] DHCP, Linux and Win95



I'm trying to setup my Linux machine to act as a DHCP server
so that the Win95 machines can use it.  I'm using the
Bootp-DD v2.4.3 package (CMU Bootpd with Dynamic Allocation
patches) and I can't get it to work.

Using a network analyzer, I can see the Win95 machines making
the Bootp request, but the Linux box never replies.  But
oddly enough, when setup to work with inetd, the bootpd
gets launched.  One thing that might be causing problems
is that this Linux box has two NIC's in it, the first with
just one interface on it, and the second with three interfaces
on it (eth1:0, eth1:1, and eth1:2).  To make things more
difficult, the requests are coming from eth1:1.

Anyone have any ideas?
