How do i know which computer is the DHCP server?  They are all just 
win98 boxen w/ the tcp/ip set to obtain IP address automatically.  Or do 
i never need to know the ip address of the dhcp server (i thought that 
the deb installation asks you for that if you choose DHCP).

Yeah, it's just normal ethernet (their is a DSL modem, but that will be 
shared by a windoze box.
