Dear Aravindh

1) Do you have a DHCP server running in your network?

2) Sometimes, DHCP servers do not serve an ip address
   range, instead they just respond if the mac address
   is in its list of fixed addresses. May be your DHCP
   server (if there is one) is configured that way...

3) From inside domU, if you issue a "ifconfig eth0",
   what comes up?
