This is an example of one of my boxes (/etc/modules.conf): alias eth0 tulip alias eth1 via-rhine Then, it's a matter of setting the ifcfg-eth? to auto-load and determine IP configuration etc. just like if you had only one nic. If you're setting up a gateway you'll need to configure at least a ip_forward = 1 and determine a route between the nic's. > as soon as the second nic is installed, i lost everything. Make sure that each driver is aliases to different /dev/eth and it should work (has worked great for 5 years for me).
