run "ifconfig -a" to see if you've been issued an IP. I would drop a line into the /etc/resolv.conf:
nameserver 192.168.0.1
and probably make sure I have the route set up manually, too. if it isn't getting an address from DHCP, you can either give it a static IP or you can try running "dhcpd" to see if you can figure out where it's breaking. also, if it turns out not to be software related, I've noticed that an I/O adress conflict will sometimes leave the NIC somewhat functional, but somewhat nonfunctional, and DHCP is the first thing to go.
truthfully, I can't imagine the DHCP or DNS forwarding functions of ICS being particularly strong, after having seen that MS's enterprise level versions being pretty flaky.
