Hey Snarf,
  If that a ref. to pinky/brain, right on! About your DHCP, I'm going to
start with a few dumb questions. Do you have eth0 setup to grab a DHCP
addr? are you running pump? and how are you going about setting up the
DHCP enabled interface?
Usually, you can run something like Linuxconf to take care of setting up
pump and eth0 to configure for DHCP, reload the network and off ya go.
