For what it's worth, my experience has always been a second network line will override settings on the first. As DHCP is the default, maybe that's got something to do with it. It does appear that you are trying to configure things on two separate lines for the same interface. That's not going to work as that's not the way those "commands" are meant to be used (as far as I know anyway). I think Michael is right in that you should probably combine it all into one line. A bigger question though, it seems, is why NetworkManager is ignoring the config? One thing to try is disabling NetworkManager, and or add the "NM_CONTROLLED=no" line to the ifcfg-eth0 file as well. Simply take NetworkManager out of the loop to eliminate it as a potential problem area.
