The standard trick with tun devices and UMLs is to bridge them to the external network interface, this way the hosted OS will communicate as if its on the external network, it can take DHCP and do all the rest. Of course if you are on a single machine broadband/dialup connection you WILL need to setup NAT and such since you'll effectively have one gateway machine (the host) and one network client (the hosted).
