I find it very convenient to run dhcpd on my virtual machine host
and just config my VMs to get their network setup from DHCP. Unfortunately
the way networks are setup seems to be different on every linux distro,
so it is a pain to track down where the config is stored on different
VMs, but they all talk DHCP (even fedora 9 works if you turn off
worthless NetworkManager and turn back on network :-).
