- Is the daemon running at all?
- Please check your log files. If there is a problem with your config file, it
  will likely be reported there.
- The log files should have some recore of requests being received and offers
  being sent out.
- If you don't find requests in the log files, but notice that the daemon _is_
  running, check your network cabling, switches, etc. Do you maybe have more
  than one ethernet port on your client?
- If all this looks fine, try with a sniffer like tcpdump.

Best,
Michael
