the logs on the debian machine should show what IP is the DHCP
server. on win98 the command winipcfg should show the IP of the DHCP
server, if its winnt or win2000 ipconfig /all should show. it's not
really that important, just be aware if the /etc/resolv.conf is screwed
up after switching to DHCP it could be because the DHCP server is running
some flavor of win32.
