I'm also new to Linux and loving
it.
I've been given a project to replace our existing company
router (a linux 5.1 box) connecting two networks 1&2 (already connected via
a router) with a cablemodem. I've loaded Redhat 5.2 and
configured the 2 NICs and the HostName, Name servers & Search domains,
Default gateway, Other routes, Hostname search path, and info about other
hosts. The problem is I can't set two adaptors for eth0 as we have in our
current router (networks 1 & 2 use eth0). I use linuxconf to set the
adaptors. When I enter the second adaptor as eth0 it replaces the first
one's IP addresses and blanks out adaptor 2. Then adaptor 3 (eth1 - the
cable modem) moves up to adaptor 2.... Any suggestions?
Thanks
