installing 2 network cards

hi groups,i have a problem with installing two network cards in a
linux box,actually i need to build a cluster where i need one card for
LAN and one for internet,when i installed one card for LAN it was in
the network and when i tried to install an other card giving a dynamic
IP address for it,both cards were not working,i dont know why and one
more thing when i was configuring the second card it asked me whether
to migrate the other card and i choose no,still it was not working,

LAN and the other for internet,i would be very thankful to you if you

That is not my site. You did not give us enough
information to start on your question.

> could you please be specific,bye.

Go back and read the first url. There is a section
"Be precise and informative about your problem"
the second bullet applies to you post.


The second url show an example diagram so we can give more exact
answers and possible files to look at.

We need the output from route and ifconfig.
