enabling two eths

so eth1 works but eth0 doesn't?
 
what's interesting is here you have no tx/rx/error packets -- how do you
know its not working?
 
Are there machines on this subnet which are working?
 
Also ping into the machine...
 
Its also sometimes useful to have a hub (not a switch) and sniff the
packets...

	Hi Martin, 
	
	Thanks for your reply,Yes I tried swapping the assignments,same
thing is happening in both cases..ifconfig and route -n results are as
below:

	Send the results of 
	ifconfig 
	and 
	route -n 
	  
	I take it eth0 works fine... 
	  
	Have you tried swapping the assignments and see if eth1 works
(to eliminate faulty hardware).

	Hi, Thanks for your kind reply, Yes i have used different * IP
Subnets* 
	
	The IPs and subnet details I use is 
	1. eth0(configured through u-boot env settings)->>
192.168.174.231 and subnet is 255.255.255.0 
	2. eth1(configured after kernel is up)--> 192.168.33.64 and
subnet is 255.255.248.0 
	
	Even i tried by connecting second eth to host PC using cross
cable as a stand-alone network but even "ping" did not work..

	I used to test functionality such a way to have two enets in
same subnet, then ifdown one of them.
	
	At least with mvista RFS, one enet  handles NFS, other is up but
all the packets are routed to it via
	the first one. And when the first one got ifdown, routing
switches to the remaining enet...
