Linking an unmanaged switch and DHCP server

I have a Netgear 48-port managed switch and a Linksys 24-port unmanaged switch. I have connected the Netgear to the Linksys via the uplink port. Systems connected to the Linksys are not getting an IP address from our DHCP server, but when the same systems are connected to Netgear it works fine. Why?
