   I just found the problem.
   This is the NEW dhclient.conf file. Notice the "request" line is empty.

#request nothing: let the server send all the parameters it knows request;

  This is the dhclient.conf as it WAS :

request subnet-mask, broadcast-address, time-offset, routers,

	domain-name, domain-name-servers, host-name,
	netbios-name-servers, netbios-scope, interface-mtu;

  Just REPLACE your dhclient.conf with the old(er) version, or copy the request line from the above file and you'll be back in business.

Cheers
