configuring eth0 and eth1...

got a problem... i need to vonfigure 2 cards...

eth0="dhcp"
eth1 should be:
IP: 10.0.0.1
MASK: 255.255.255.0
GW: 10.0.0.1
DNS: 10.0.0.1

but now comes the problem...

in rc.conf i specify:

eth0="dhcp"
eth1="eth1 10.0.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 10.0.0.255"
INTERFACES=(lo eth0 eth1)
gateway="default gw 10.0.0.1"
ROUTES=(gateway)

now when PC starts, network fails to start

eth0 gaat's no IP via dhcp, and in ifconfig eth0 gets 10.0.0.1 IP  :shock:

and no internet awailable... only way to get internet working is to remove eth1 from rc.conf...

So what am i missing???

eth0 is Realtek 8139 - module 8139too, other is realtek too - 80xx... can't remember other 2 digits...

PC is a server, that serves as an internet server and dhcp server...
