Summary:                    The new network init script as listed in news on site does not work for me
Description: 
The new net init scipt is supposed to work for static IP. I have eth0
static and eth1 wireless-static. All was fine with original script (from
iso?) When I switched to the new one, things messed up. Not sure what
happened exactly but it seems that when my net got detected, eth0 was
found but when pcmcia (eth1- wireless) was loaded, is assumed eth0 was my
wireless and overwrote/mixed configurations. It may be unclear. I can
assists in reproducing this if you'd like. Just let me know

I need to know exactly what is happening to try and diagnose.  You may be
seeing that the default gateway is being set to one particular card and
this is correct.  Your system should have only one default gateway and it
will be whatever you set it to via lnet.  However, if you are seeing the
IP address or subnet mask on eth0 change when eth1 is coming up, then I
need to know exactly what is happening.

Hmm. I just go the latest moonbase to get the very latest network script
from net-tools to retest and it seems corrupted. It is un unexecutable
binary instead of a shell script.  Thoughts?

The network script in the moonbase
(/var/lib/lunar/moonbase/net/net-tools/init.d/network) is a shell script. 
You might try doing a lin moonbase to see if you just had a bad download
of it.  It should be a very lengthy, but readable, shell script.
