I've seen this behavior in etch for some time now. I get an IP address

No, that address shown is NOT my IP address. :)
I have udev rules in place to rename eth0 and eth1 to eth-lan and
eth-wlan, respectively. But I'm very sure that I used to be able to see
my real IP address via ifconfig, even with the udev renaming.
So what's going on here?
Thanks,

If you have installed zeroconf, its installed as a recommends to other
packages, purge it and restart your networking.
