Do this:
1. For interfaces where this box is the gateway (i.e. your
internal interface is 192.168.1.1 and *that* is the gateway address for the
LAN), do not set a GATEWAY line in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ethX.
2. For interfaces where this box is *not* the gateway, set the
GATEWAY line in the ifcfg-ethX file.
3. Set "GATEWAYDEV=eth0" in /etc/sysconfig/network.
Restart the network. You should be OK. If not, post the output of "route
-n" and the contents of /etc/sysconfig/network plus the relevant ifcfg-ethX
files. Make sure that firewall is cleared and disabled *before* you do this
to avoid distractions.
Cheers,
