[root@jellybelly networking]# more /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=none
ONBOOT=yes
USERCTL=no
PEERDNS=no
TYPE=Ethernet

I'm guessing that your configuration looks like above, simply run

dhclient eth0

This should manually invoke to DHCP for the interface.

Changing BOOTPROTO to "dhcp" and PEERDNS to "yes" should do the trick
for subsequent reboots.
