+I believe if you have zcip installed, it should get an IP address assigned,

+I think we should be using avahi-autipd instead of zcip.

+Sure, the script above could have zcip replaced with avahi-autoipd. However,
+the man page for avahi-autoipd points one at this wiki page:
+<A HREF="http://avahi.org/wiki/AvahiAutoipd">http://avahi.org/wiki/AvahiAutoipd</A>
+
+which recommends using the DHCP plugin instead. Maybe you could experiment,
+and see exactly what is necessary (sorry, all my wifi networks have DHCP
+servers).
