Re: 2 ethernet interfaces

[Naresh Narang <nknarang@xxxxxxxxx>]

Mr. Goldwyn,

    Refer my earlier mail. I don't know what you are
trying to achieve by configuring both Network cards in
the same network. There is no fun in it ;) One card
should have internal and other the external IP address
(supplied by your ISP). Also, if you don't plan on
using any proxy firewall and such, set
FORWARD_IPV4=yes in /etc/sysconfig/network (again
RedHat).

Regards,
Naresh
