Many thanks to those who responded. I found the error of my ways and feel
like a complete prat for not seeing it. I simply added to
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1 the two lines:

NETWORK=192.168.0.0
BROADCAST=192.168.0.255

Although I think it was the absence of the first one which was messing me
up! Such a simple thing, but by the time I wrote the last posting I had
burried myself so deep in the scripting that I couldn't see the forest for
the woods. Perhaps I shouldn't be working on this stuff at 5 am before my
first cup of coffee.

Cheers,
Andrew
