Thanks. I ended up putting a NIC from a different name brand so they would not be identical. I did delete the garbage out of /etc/sysconfig but it did not work, perhaps if I tried deleting the entire config and starting over it may have worked.

Now that I have both working how can you have two default gateways (one for each adapter) so they both service the separate IP networks independently of each other?

I made sure ip forwarding is turned off in sysctl.conf. But with default gateway set on both they will not respond to outside requests.
