[Server-devel] XS 0.5 - eth1 not coming up

I installed XS 0.5 and am having trouble configuring the LAN.  I have 2 NICs
- eth0 to the outside world and eth1 facing the LAN.

I've read README.networking in /usr/share/doc/xs-config and looked at the
ifcfg scripts in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts, but I still can't figure
out how landbond0 fits into the environment.  When I do ifconfig, it seems
like lanbond0 is getting assigned the stuff I'm used to seeing on eth1.
Eth1 doesn't get anything.

Here's the output of ifconfig for eth1 and the lanbond stuff:

eth1      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:0D:56:05:7C:DA
          inet6 addr: fe80::20d:56ff:fe05:7cda/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:6 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:10
          RX bytes:0 (0.0 b)  TX bytes:468 (468.0 b)

lanbond0  Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:00:00:00:00:00
          inet addr:172.18.96.1  Bcast:172.18.127.255  Mask:255.255.224.0
          UP BROADCAST MASTER MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
          RX bytes:0 (0.0 b)  TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)

lanbond0:1 Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:00:00:00:00:00
          inet addr:172.18.1.1  Bcast:172.18.1.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          UP BROADCAST MASTER MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1

lanbond0:2 Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:00:00:00:00:00
          inet addr:172.18.0.1  Bcast:172.18.0.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          UP BROADCAST MASTER MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1


Of course, being the adventuresome type, I did:

ifconfig eth1 172.18.96.0 netmask 255.255.224.0

ifdown lanbond0

Which broke everything till I rebooted.

Any suggestions on configuration?
