Since your internal interface is doing DHCP, you can't do this without making a choice:
1. Don't do DHCP on your internal face, define static IPs for both internal and external, and only define your gateway for your external (via netconfig or by hand-editing /etc/sysconfig/networks-scripts/ifcfg-eth[0,1]. 2. Update your /etc/rc.d/rc.local script to adjust your routing table as necessary. The issue here is that you are using DHCP, nothing else. It's going to setup your default route. You need to address that one way or the other. Oh, and David's example doesn't appear to be RHEL to me. I've never seen an /etc/init.d/myroute on Red Hat or Red Hat-like systems. I could be wrong about this though.
