If for example they were reconfigured so that one was of the form 152.3.171.* and the other was of the form 152.3.172.& (say) then would the problem just disappear?That largely depends on your subnet mask and how your network is routed. What is the output of `/sbin/ifconfig` with both interfaces up?
See below. The problem interface is eth0. The original one, which still seems to work Ok, is eth1.
Thanks. Faheem.
