LinuxQuestions.org - IP/DHCP and SSH Problem

Ok. I'm dual booting Win XP and FC4.
I also have a wireless router that I use to connect to the internet with.

Now, my desktop does not have a wireless NIC (yet) and is using a bridge from another computer on my network. Normal internet connections work fine in linux, and I got everything working fine in windows, ever my remote stuff....but in Linux I'm having troubles. First, it gets the wrong IP address from the DHCP server (I have static DHCP setup so I can do remoting)

These are the entries in my config for the DHCP (on the router)

Code:

1) jpower        192.168.0.101        00-02-55-FF-C0-9D        

2) cornempire        192.168.0.111        00-40-F4-34-02-F1

3) dell_900_laptop        192.168.0.110        02-0F-3D-68-75-01 *

4) jonesinator        192.168.0.115        00-4F-49-0C-AF-C2

5) dell_900_laptop        192.168.0.112        00-0F-3D-68-75-01 ^

* This the the imaginary software network bridge on my XP laptop.
^ This is the real card.

Now here is the data that appears whin I do ifconfig:

Code:

[cornmaster@cornempire ~]$ /sbin/ifconfig

eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:40:F4:34:02:F1

          inet addr:192.168.0.112  Bcast:192.168.0.255  Mask:255.255.255.0

It clearly shows the MAC for the proper entry, but it doesn't get the proper IP. You can see that it gets the IP for the laptop wireless card. When I look at the router, it shows the laptop mac (entry 5) for my linux desktop.

In Windows this isn't an issue, it gets the proper IP for the proper MAC. I suppose I could hardcode the IP in linux, but that wouldn't be my first option. So...get all of that... ;) Anyone have any ideas?

Also...my ssh problem.

I'm sure I sshed inside the LAN before, but now it's not working. The only thing I changed was the port number. Can anyone see anything wrong with this config? It's default...except for the port.
