J.,

Certainly, I have no problem answering questions...

JCW> Did you set each nic up independently, using different IP
JCW> addresses on each one?

Yes. Or at least that is what I have tried to do. I look in linuxconf
and that appears to be what I have done but the NIC's are not
functioning the way I expect.

JCW> Are they both on the same subnet, i.e. what is the mask for
JCW> both interfaces?

Currently, the mask for both is 255.255.255.254
I have attempted 255.255.255.0  255.255.255.255  255.255.255.254
without differing results. Always using the same subnet on both NIC's.

JCW> You say that you are using different drivers for each
JCW> interface. Does this mean there are two different vendor
JCW> makes for the cards?

Yes. Two different cards, two different vendors, two different
drivers.

JCW> Maybe you could give us some more details, i.e. results from
JCW> "ifconfig -a", "arp -a" and "cat /etc/resolv.conf"

JCW> What kind of machine are you creating, i.e. is this a
JCW> gateway/router for a private LAN?

At this time, the machine simply serves HTTP and FTP. The ultimate
goal is for this machine to serve as a firewall; receiving packets
from the router through eth0 and passing (some) packets to the LAN
through eth1. I have made no progress on the firewall setup as I can
not solve this problem (separate IP's on each NIC).

JCW> Can you "ping" these nics from any and all machines?

With network cable attached to eth0, I can ping both 90.0.0.88 and
90.0.0.89 from all LAN machines.
With network cable attached to eth1, I can not ping either of those
IP's from any LAN machine.

JCW> Are you using smb or nmb on your machine or network (if you
JCW> h)? What about FQDN for the nics if on different
JCW> subnets?

Using both SMB and NMB on this machine to enable LAN connections from
other clients (Windows clients).
No FQDN as the NIC's are not on differing subnets.

Hope this helps; I am stumped though that is not hard since I am
relatively new to Linux. Feel free to ask anything else you need/want
to know. Thanks for your help...
