What network interface is configured by DHCP? eth0? What does your
/etc/network/interfaces look like?
My DHCP configured interface is eth1 so my /etc/network/interfaces
file has
auto eth1
iface eth1 inet dhcp
in it. I also specified some options below that so a certain command
is run whenever the interface is brought up.
