Ermm... maybe I'm being stupid but I thought you also have to edit files in (it must depend on your distro I guess)

/etc/sysconfig/network/

If you do need to edit these files, you'll probably already see something which looks like

/etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth0

If you see that, the quickest thing to do would be to

cp /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth0 /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth1

The edit it

pico /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth1

Just change the hardware address and the IP setting then run

/etc/init.d/network restart

Voila, you should have a new interface available. That will load at startup too.

Note: Your network script paths may vary depending upon the distro you have
