[butch@xxxxxxxx (butch)]

one question I have along these lines is this: I have two ethernet
cards. One (eth0) is configured using DHCP (. I've configued as below
for the other addresses, assigning eth0:0 internal IP of 192.168.0.1,
and eth1 192.168.0.2.
For somereason, whenever I have DHCP on, the other two addresses remain
unassigned, even though it is configured in rc.config. when DHCP is
disabled, the cards go up at boot time like they should. Does DHCP
override the rc.config?
