I stripped down my interfaces file to just what you have above.
Then I rebooted and did "ifconfig -a".
It showed no IP address.
So I did "dhclient -v eth0" and got this:

Sounds good, right?

But an "ifconfig -a" yields this:
------------------
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:D0:69:41:24:26

---------------------

So just to be sure I tried pinging 130.215.55.154, and it
said the network was unreachable.

Thanks to all who have tried to help.
Any other ideas about things I can try?
