That's an interesting question... I have a RH7.1 server with three 3c59x
NICs and upon a reboot, found that assignments had all changed.  It would be
nice that it would stay consistant between reboots (though the reboots and
reassignments occur rarely).  This reassigments play havoc for a real-time
shop like mine where communication traffic from one network relys on the
traffic comming from the other network.  Now upon rebooting, it is required
for me to check the eth's for proper assignments.

Thanks, I got them configured.  One more question:  How can I tell which
card (physically on the motherboard) is eth0 and eth1.  Are they
automatically assigned in a certain order (e.g. top to bottom)?

They both might have already been identified.  Don't use kudzu like
that.  It's more of a plug-pray style device.

To see if both devices have been identified, type `dmesg`, this will
give you kernel info on boot (ie: what devices the kernel found).  Also,
/sbin/lspci will give you a list of pci devices that the kernel found.
