The dhcp-dump for the client never showed anything.

When I log in from the client on the server via ssh it works with a
static ip#. But nothing else. Do I have to configure the firewalls on
both machines differently for dhcp?

On the server it does IP forwarding and masquerading and allows ssh and
rsync only. Do have to enable something there for the internal network??
Maybe an additional port? If yes, which one?
On the client I use the setings I always use to get internet
connections. It's a laptop and has been connected to various networks
with this configuration. So I guess I still make a mistake on the
server, right?

I also had a look to the /var/log/[messages/warn] but could not reveal
anything on the server nor on the client.

So what can I do next to get an internet connection for this client?
