Ok, and you checked the network scripts and there's one for eth0 and one for 
eth1...

Which one comes up when you boot?

What happens if you issue ifconfig -eth<other> up?

Then just ifconfig?

We know it's not an IP Address question, because it worked under your other 
distro, so it's got to be something about how RedHat is starting the network.

If necessary, we can step through the boot process and figure out where it's 
going wrong.

I do know that I can't use the ifdown/ifup scripts to restart my network for 
some reason - I always assumed it just didn't work with pump.  In fact, I've 
had trouble getting the network to restart by doing anything except a full 
reboot - even switching runlevels doesn't seem to work, so there's a catch in 
the RH system somewhere.
