Found the problem, and solution.

See
http://lists.terrasoftsolutions.com/pipermail/yellowdog-general/2003-May/007837.html

I had to add the line to the ifcfg-eth1 files in both
/etc/sysconfig/networking and /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts

Then I ran Redhat-Network-Config (aka neat) and everything is great.
