Graham,

If you have another router on a network that's providing dhcp, just 
disable dhcp on the specific ethernet adapter in AstLinux and allow the 
other device to handle dhcp.  Nothing else should be required.

I do this all the time with installations that have Windows Small 
Business server.  The SBS must be dhcp for the subnet that it's on.
