I'm aware of the syslogs.  In fact, that's how I know that it's not connecting
properly.  I guess what I'm really wondering is what sort of things could
be causing it to not finish the connect?  If I have other networking settings
(ie- a static IP assigned, or something like that) would they be causing 
this problem?
