I'd have thought something like NetworkManager 
(http://www.gnome.org/projects/NetworkManager/) should help out here.  There 
may be less desktop/GUI-oriented options available (I've only used NM through 
Kubuntu's KDE implementation) but I can't think of any off the top of my head.  
Then again, I only ever configure LFS in static-IP, wired network 
configurations.

Matt.
