Ok now I'm pretty sure dhclient3 is messing with me I found a config file for my static interface (eth1) in my var/lib/dhcp3/dhclient.eth1.leases. So I ran

I think 10.04 has a much more robust set of open source wifi drivers. You should be able to get it up and running. On your server check your /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules to make sure...

I seem to remember having this same problem myself, I think I just reinstalled Ubuntu and it worked the second time.

OK, I tried running the script above to see if I could get anything to work. I disabled UFW just to make sure and here is the output of my IPtables:

also I don't know if this helps, but the router that I am using to assign the DHCP addresses on the internal side is a wrt-320 running dd-wrt with a static lease on the servers.

Sorry about that, I just threw some dummy info into the post so as to avoid putting my own IP's up. I went ahead and changed the post to more accurately reflect the type of network that I have.

any additional insight into iptables for ubuntu would be incredibly helpful.

aah that makes sense. If I only knew more about the iptables, I know ubuntu uses it's own interface to change iptables, but I guess I'll keep messing around with it some more.

Raid 1, but I'm always for fail-safe redundancies.

What distro are you upgrading from? I would highly recommend doing a reinstall when upgrading distro releases.

on a side note, if I don't want to use nautilus at all to share, what is the proper way to set up a share folder named /folder using the CLI?
