Hi Jonathan Allen!
Try:
------------------------------------------------------------
System > Administration > Services
Un-check NetworkManager
Check Network (about 2/3 down the list)
Hit "Save" and close
System > Administration > Network
Select eth0 and press "edit"
select "static" and set up your static address - Hit "OK"
Choose the DNS tab and key in the DNS servers.
Hit "File" and choose "Save"
Hit "File" and choose "Quit"
System > Shutdown > Restart
-----------------------------------------------
Have Fun!
Tod
