This is just too painful. 

What do you have for a router? A Linksys? If so with Linksys and some others
the default DHCP starts at 192.168.1.100. Have you tried setting the IP
address of the server to 192.168.1.99 or another IP address that isn't
likely assigned like 192.168.1.100 would be with a Linksys or similar
router? Check the IP address you use from a PC with the server off:
Ping 192.168.1.99 (or whatever) from your PC to make sure it's not occupied.

If you use 192.168.1.99 as the server address and then can get there using
the URL http://192.168.1.99 maybe things will work better. It looks like you
found eth0 (does not always match the labeling on the jacks), so that should
not be a problem.

A 5108/5017 install should just work as described above.

I hope this helps.

Thanks: Dudi Goldenberg

I reset the Dell  server to its original settings: (please see this SS:)

(NB: There is no option here, to set the machine to DHCP !)
 
1: I've cleared the router of both servers reserved settings. 
2: I plugged in the Ethernet-Cable into the original P3 server, and it's
acknowledged by the router.
3: I unplugged the Ethernet-Cable from the P3, and plugged it into the Dell
server..
...and it IS-NOT acknowledged by the router.
 
4: I ran your (dhclient) test:  (please see this SS, just below centre)

eth0eth1_zps24a44e17.jpg
eth0: did nothing... But, eth1: showed some info, so what does that mean ?
 
5: I pinged the P3 server with the routers LAN IP address, and it works OK:
(please see this SS:)

6: I did the same with the dell, and it failed. (please see the SS at 4:)
 
Thanks
