Thanks for the reply Charles.
My network.conf is unchanged except for the change IF_DHCP="eth0 eth1". I
did include the "'s and make sure that only eth1 was in IF_AUTO. After boot
it displays messages after the lines for DHCPD that say "Please contribute
if you find this software useful.... such as:
Listening on LPF/ETH1/OO:E0:29:91:F7:ED/192.168.1.0
Sending on LPF/ETH1/OO:E0:29:91:F7:ED/192.168.1.0
Sending on Socket/fallback/fallback-net
Starting additional network services:.
[:eth2:unknown operand
No interfaces defined for DHCP!
Starting /usr/sbin/dnscache....
Then the next lines are the login.
Thanks for the help,
David

I believe this should work...Note that you are listing the wrong variable
name, and you need quotes around the two interface names:
IF_DHCP="eth0 eth1"
(or whatever the two interfaces you want configured by dhcp) should do what
you want...remember to remove interfaces configured by dhcp from IF_AUTO.
