You can also use modconf for the module,it's a bit more
graphical(ncurses)
and for dhcp well,fire-up the StormPackage Manager and browse the net

(I'm running potato and the name is dhcp-client ),look for something
similar
if it's a laptop in potato there is another client named
dhclient for this,don't know why.
