Interestingly enough, I've had NO problem getting WIDE DHCP 1.3 to work with my windows 95 box (no, I didn't change ANYTHING except that it should get its IP address dynamically) but I'm dealing with the same problem with a Lan Workplace for DOS (Bootp) and its NOT getting the response... although the dhcpm program shows that there is a response... eg..
