OOOOOPPPPPSSSS. I am very sorry, I think I may have made a very bad
mistake.
The subject line says DHCPD, I want the two nics to be able to get an IP
address from a DHCP server not hand IP's out. Have I been asking the wrong
question??? If so, I am very sorry for the mix up.

Thanks again for the responce. I think Im about to loose me mind. Any way.
Just to clarify, I added the EXTERN_IF="eth0 eth2" only after the first try
of changing IF_DHCP="eth0 eth2" did not work.
It is still not working. I have tried redownloading the eigerstein file and
even tried the eigersteinbeta2.
What kind of network cards are you useing in the system that you got two
nics to use dhcp client. Im bordering insanity, if there is any thing else
that you think may help or find the problem please let me know.
Desperate for a solution,
David

Your problem is the EXTERN_IF setting. You cannot have more than one
external interface (at least as far as the default firewall scripts are
concerned). Set EXTERN_IF=eth0, leave IF_DHCP="eth0 eth2", and you should
be up and running. You'll have to hack your firewall rules, routing setup,
and probably a few other things if you *really* want to have two external
interfaces...
