Ahh ok well thats what will be giving out the dhcp address then :-)

First, and usually overlooked step:

are the cables all plugged in and the ethernet card led's flashing?

if so:

Try running the following as root:

dhcpcd -k eth0
(makes sure dhcpcd is dead, k=kill)

dhcpcd -d eth0
(d=debug)

then take a look in your log file, probably /var/log/messages. dhcpcd
should have logged what it was doing. 

grep -i dhcp /var/log/messages
