Subject: setting up two ethernet devices--seperate networks

Ok, I've done this before with a ppp(tun) device and an ethernet
device--but mostly by luck and brute force.  Now I'm trying to setup a
multi-homed machine (two ethernet devices).  The ethernet devices _do not
conflict_. I know this because I can use either device on the open network
(206.81.134.0) by just changing which device is setup on that network and
plugging in the right network cable and rebooting.  But I can't get the
private network (192.168.1.0) to work at the same time.  At the moment I
am _not_ using the kernel with IPFIREWALL--I just want to connect TO this
machine.  The networks are:

    192.168.1.0
    192.168.1.1   -- this machine on the localnet
    192.168.1.5   -- another machine on the local net
    206.81.134.0  -- open net
    206.81.135.97 -- this machine on the open net

>From my sysconfig:

network_interfaces="lo0 ed0 ed1"

ifconfig_lo0="inet 127.0.0.1"
ifconfig_ed0="inet 206.81.134.97 netmask 255.255.255.0"
ifconfig_ed1="inet 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0"

I am not defining any static routes--should I be?  I ended up forcing my
localnet machine to work with route add -net 192.168.1.0 -interface
ed1--it always whines when I run it--but it works.  This doesn't work for
me now tho :b

For now all I want to do is simply be able to ping .5 from .1 on the
localnet.  When I do it now I get:

> ping 192.168.1.5
PING 192.168.1.5 (192.168.1.5): 56 data bytes
ping: sendto: Host is down
ping: wrote 192.168.1.5 64 chars, ret=-1
ping: sendto: Host is down
ping: wrote 192.168.1.5 64 chars, ret=-1

Help?

Thanks..
