No... this is unrelated.

You don't have dhcpd (the server deamon, not the DHCP client) installed.
Thus MOL can't provide DHCP support to OSX.

DHCP won't work unless you install dhcpd (recommended). If you
configure manually, then you should use

IP: 		192.168.1.2	
Gateway:	192.168.1.1	(i.e. the linux machine)
Netmask:	255.255.255.0
Nameserver:	examine /etc/resolv.conf, avoid 127.0.0.1

Note: I have recently change 192.168.1.X to something
which should have less chance of conflicting with other
local networks so this will change to 192.168.130.X or 
something similar in the future (one can always use ifconfig
to find out the correct IP to use).

I still haven't uploaded the updated MOL audio driver yet. It is
in the works...
