Don't think there is any harm in having it in all of them -

says the same thing!
That did the trick. That an removing the erroneous one from ifcfg-eth1.
Turns out the last one processed won.
The default route is tried last. I end up with the following routing
table using the ifcfg-ethX files below:
[root@fraud ~]# netstat -n -r
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt

72.19.169.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0
eth0
169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0

[root@fraud ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
# 3Com Corporation 3c905C-TX/TX-M [Tornado]
DEVICE=eth0
ONBOOT=yes
BOOTPROTO=static
IPADDR=72.19.169.230 <-- My external IP address
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
GATEWAY=72.19.169.1 <-- My ISP's gateway
[root@fraud ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1

ONBOOT=yes
BOOTPROTO=none
IPADDR=192.168.255.254

Internal traffic from the server goes out eth1 since that route gets
tried before the default route.
