Let's settle this issue once and for all.

Only one should be running. I believe (someone may correct me) that dhcpcd 
is the preferred choice. We should only have dhcpcd running, and need to 
find a way to turn off pump. Or, if you prefer pump, need to turn off dhcpcd.

The man page for each should tell you where it keeps the DHCP info it got 
from the DHCP server.

If so, how do you explain this?

I have a strong hunch a misconfigured gateway could be a good part of your 
troubles. (There may be others, but surely this is one.)

I suggest shutting down one DHCP client, and then reading the man page for 
the other to find out where it stores the info it got from the server, so 
we can settle the 206/216 issue once and for all.

What does "ifconfig" show now?

Nope; you want the file where dhcpcd (for example) stores the config info 
it got. The following is an excerpt from the dhcpcd man page:

FILES
        /etc/dhcpc
               directory used for storing files created by dhcpcd

        /etc/dhcpc/dhcpcd-<interface>.info
               file  in  which  dhcpcd saves the host information.
               The word interface is actually  replaced  with  the
               network interface name like eth0 to which dhcpcd is
               attached.

This configuration is fine (assuming your nameservers are OK, but we're 
doing networking first.)

>I've rebooted so I imagine they've been reactivated, yes.

"service ipchains status" will return to you the list of currently active 
ipchains rules. Yes, they should have reactivated.

Man, I have *no* idea why this is so difficult. I didn't know how to do 
this, and my 7.2 box I just set up (a Cyrix P166+) took me 30 minutes to do.

You sure you don't want to install 7.2 on here, then I can guide you to my 
config? :) Probably take less time than to figure the current config out... 
<grin>
