This is the address range that windows machines will use when they can not
find a dhcp server. Therefore, you'll need to leave the ifcfg-eth0 files as
is, if you want to be able to access windows machines from linux and visa
versa (or else set static IPs, or make sure that windows machines are
connecting to the dhcp server).

Try placing the line
NOZEROCONF='yes'
in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0

comment out any duplicate lines, so that only one of each remains.
then type /etc/rc.d/init.d/network restart
check everything, and see if I was any help
