What's the other interface's address? If they're both 192.168.1.x with
a 255.255.255.0 netmask you're going to strike problems, you've got two
subnets, they need to be addressed accordingly.
e.g. eth0 192.168.0.1/255.255.255.0
eth1 192.168.1.1/255.255.255.0 using 192.168.1.x (above) as its gateway
and clients should use the 192.168.1.1 as their gateway

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
I read messages from the public lists.
