Hi, what you seem to have done is difine a exteral segment and a fakenet segment this works because your machine acts as a gateway between two segments. when you define 2 cards as subsequent IP's on the same subnet you create a multipe IP route this becomes problematic. but it should work if you define the primary IP as the fakenet and then in rc.local add a ip alias for the fakenet ip to be the .4 real ip.
