Proxmox 4.0, CTs do not have network interface (new to this)

I'm new to the virtualization scene and just learning and I'm stuck at a point that I get the feeling is obvious, but I just can't seem to find a solution.I am running Proxmox 4.0Beta-24 ontop of Debian 8 (setup as-per the wiki instructions).I have a CT with Debian 8 (as provided per the container template) setup and I can start it and login to via the noVNC shell. But it can not get an outside network connection. I'm assuming there's just something with the bridged network setup I should have done that I didn't and don't know that I should or how.Networking on the host works just fine.On the host my /etc/network/interfaces file is:
Code:
auto loiface lo inet loopbackallow-hotplug eth0iface eth0 inet dhcpiface eth1 inet dhcpauto vmbr0allow-ovs vmbr0iface vmbr0 inet manual  ovs_type OVSBridge  ovs_ports eth0
The guest is not able to get online and only has the local adapter show up if I run ifconfg
Code:
root@test:~# ifconfiglo        Link encap:Local Loopbackinet addr:127.0.0.1  Mask:255.0.0.0inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:HostUP LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:65536  Metric:1RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0collisions:0 txqueuelen:0RX bytes:0 (0.0 B)  TX bytes:0 (0.0 B)root@test:~#
But then the /etc/network/interfaces file for the guest is:
Code:
auto loiface lo inet loopbackauto eth0iface eth0 inet manual
I have tried setting iface eth0 to DHCP, but it keeps reverting.I'm assuming there's something obvious with the networking I'm missing, I'm just brand new at this and trying to learn, and so far I've had no luck in my research.

Sorry, but DHCP needs latest patches from git - I will upload that next week. For now, please try to use a fixed IP address.
