You can not have the same IP on each NIC. What is possible; is to have an IP on each NIC from the same (sub)network range, but that makes routing less transparent. Better go with ip from different subnet ranges for each NIC: e.g. 10.0.1.2/24 for eth0 and 10.0.2.2/24 for eth1. What is the purpose of the whole exercise? (important question for what to do next!) If the computers function is *only* a firewall, you might want to look into bridging. Best, Rob -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
