2nd Network Card Configuration - Dapper

Something simple I think, hoping for a quick answer.

I added a second network card to a Dapper server build and configured
DHCP3 to provide services on the second NIC.

I can manually make it all work.  I have the second NIC configured in the
interfaces as eth1 and properly defined but it won't come activate at
boot time and DHCP services fail to start.  With it configured this way,
if I do an ifconfig -a, the card is actually shown as eth2 with no
configuration.  If I rem it out in interfaces, then reboot, un rem it,
manually restart networking, it does come up as eth1 and I can start the
DHCP services.  And I can verify this by pulling DHCP on another computer
from this system which then works.

I am sure I am missing a configuration setting that would make it all
work automatically so that eth1 correctly configured and and active on
boot such that DHCP Server would start properly as well on boot.  The
suggestion box is open.

Thanks,

Clint
