Network card does not work

[telespan]

I have an FC5 (x64) install that I have just re-installed. There are two wired interfaces (eth0 and eth1). I have configured these to be 192.168.0.22 and 192.168.0.23 respectively. When I bring them both up using ifup and then do an ifconfig, eth0 correctly reports itself as 192.168.0.22, whereas eth1 then reports itself as 169.254.57.158. Consequently, I am not able to connect to anything on eth1 (eth0 is not actually connected to anything anyway).

What have I done wrong in the configuration? Where do I look to correct eth1 configuration?

What is in the following files at /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ ifcfg-eth0 and ifcfg-eth1.

the ifcfg files contain the following:-

eth0:
DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=none
BROADCAST=192.168.0.255
HWADDR=******* (actual MAC address)
IPADDR=192.168.0.22
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
NETWORK=192.168.0.0
ONBOOT=yes
USERCTL=no
IPV6INIT=no
PEERDNS=yes
GATEWAY=192.168.0.1
TYPE=Ethernet

eth1:
DEVICE=eth1
BOOTPROTO=none
BROADCAST=192.168.0.255
HWADDR=******* (actual MAC address)
IPADDR=192.168.0.23
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
NETWORK=192.168.0.0
ONBOOT=yes
USERCTL=no
IPV6INIT=no
PEERDNS=yes
GATEWAY=192.168.0.1
TYPE=Ethernet

Following a re-boot, the networking now works as intended. I still need to implement the wireless capability, but that can be done relatively painlessly.

The next step after that will be to upgrade to FC6.
