This is probably a dumb question, but is your ethernet cable still plugged into the machine, and was it that way on boot up?

My Debian server has a static address of 192.168.0.77, but this past week I've had to reboot the machine twice, and both times it came up with a weird 192.254.240.94 address. Now I've been told that this is a quasi DHCP address when a machine is not able to find a DHCP server. My /etc/network/interface sets up eth0 as a static address, where is it being overriden to DHCP?
