Multiple Network Cards

Hi all....

I'm trying to run two 3c905B Cyclone cards in a machine. I'm using the E
driver and I've tried modules and compiled into the Kernel. a DMESG reports
that both cards were detected at eth0 and eth1 respectively. I can ping the
one card (192.168.0.1) from a windows machine (192.168.0.10). I can't ping
the second card (eth1, 146.141.15.2) from another windows machine
(146.141.15.10)
I've tried doing an ifdown to disable eth0 but eth1 still doesn't talk. By
using ipforwarding I can ping the 146.141.15.2 card from the windows machine
at 192.168.0.10

The other problem I'm experiencing, is that if I just add the two cards, I
can't ping any address... I have to set ATBOOT=no on eth1 and manually start
it in my S99local script.

Any help much appreciated!
