here's my static setup -- see if what you need is revealed
herein...

	# /etc/network/interfaces -- configuration file for ifup(8), ifdown(8)
	iface lo inet loopback

	iface eth0 inet static
		address 192.168.1.1
		netmask 255.255.0.0
		network 192.168.1.0
		broadcast 192.168.1.255

	iface eth1 inet static
		address 123.456.789.012
		netmask 255.255.255.0
		network 123.456.789.0
		broadcast 123.456.789.255
		gateway 123.456.789.987

DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #13 from Will Trillich <will@serensoft.com> 
:
How can you generate RANDOM EMAIL SIGNATURES? Many email clients
have this feature -- for mutt, simply declare in your ~/.muttrc
file something like
	send-hook debian- "set signature='~/.signature-debian |'"
(note the quoted value ends with a 'pipe|' symbol) Then whenever
you send email to any debian-* address, it'll append the output
from your script, instead of appending a static file.
