Thank you Lucas, that did work! Now I'm wondering if the server can remember all the MAC addresses and IPs the bridge "learnt" before rebooting.
Everytime I restart the server, the bridge has to learn all the MACs and IPs all over again which takes a while with only 3 PCs connected to the bridge. I have a feeling it would take longer if there were >30 PCs! Here are the Bridge Related commands I inserted in /etc/rc.d/rc.local ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0 ifconfig eth1 0.0.0.0 brctl addbr br0 brctl addif br0 eth0 brctl addif br0 eth1 ifconfig br0 192.168.1.1 Thanks again for the tip..
