I'm afraid I've ditched Ubuntu and gone back to Fedora 9. Fedora 9 network configuration works fine and, although the VPN client is not quite as easy to use as that on the Ubuntu gnome network-manager it always works with eth0 configured to a static address. On a differeet issue, cron also always works on Fedora 9 which it doesn't on Ubuntu 8.04/8.10
