Multiple NICs

Hello.

I am still trying (and failing miserably) to get Netatalk working with 2
nics.

here's what /var/log/messages says after a 'atalk start':

Feb 11 17:49:10 lauren kernel: NET4: AppleTalk 0.18 for Linux NET4.0
Feb 11 17:49:11 lauren atalkd[20045]: restart (1.4b2+asun2.1.3)
Feb 11 17:49:21 lauren atalkd[20045]: ready 0/0/0
Feb 11 17:49:21 lauren atalk: atalkd startup succeeded
Feb 11 17:49:21 lauren atalkd[20045]: setifaddr: eth1: Address already
in use
Feb 11 17:49:21 lauren papd[20050]: restart (1.4b2+asun2.1.3)
Feb 11 17:49:21 lauren afpd[20052]: main: atp_open: Cannot assign
requested address
Feb 11 17:49:21 lauren afpd[20052]: ASIP started on 192.168.1.1:548(0)
(1.4b2+asun2.1.3)

I guessed the 'setifaddr' line was coming up because another machine was
using the address I was trying to assign to atalkd. So, I shut down all
the macs and turned off my Axis print server, and it still comes up.

Finally, here's what atalk.conf looks like -before- 'atalk start':
eth1 -router -phase 2 -net 2000 -addr 2000.10 -zone NewNet
eth0 -router -phase 2 -net 1000 -addr 1000.10 -zone OldNet

Here's what atalk.conf looks like -after- 'atalk start':
eth1 -router -phase 2 -net 2000 -addr 2000.10
eth0 -router -phase 2 -net 1000 -addr 0.0

Should it be overwriting it?

Thanks for any help;
Jason
