Fedora Users — Re: Problems getting 2 NICs to work.

Ah... rc.local... thanks.

Here are the results that you asked to see. I'm still quite curious as to how this is actually working.

And I couldn't get that last command to run. I tried ifcfg-ethX and ifcfg-eth0 and ifcfg-eth01 but all commands were not found. Perhaps they're not in the path?

Where should I be placing the default route statement so it survives reboot?

Delete all GATEWAY settings in 
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ethX and use instead
/etc/sysconfig/network with GATEWAY for the default gateway and
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-ethX for the net specific routes. I
pointed you already to

http://www.akadia.com/services/redhat_static_routes.html

Did that not help?

Also, how is it that this is working since you didn't think it could?

Could you post:
a) route -n
b) ip route list
c) ip addr list
d) ifcfg-ethX

Did I leave out that the two ISPs live on the same switch plane on my 
publis network? That should allow for separate net segments over the 
same card since neither one has a gateway.

I checked it from traces and pings at an external source and it's working...

Thanks and WTF???????

Can't say.
