If you're using the 9front userspace you might want to throw the 9front kernel's port directory at 9vx and rebuild (I haven't tried this). Not that that has anything to do with your current problem.
I wonder why it says DHCP failed instead of no success with DHCP. Can't help you with the tun/tap stuff. Maybe at that layer everything is working properly and you just need to do a manual ipconfig(8) inside 9vx.
