Which distro are you using? Some use ifcfg.* config files which set variables. Some use a script which contains ifconfig commands.

Edit your network configuration script at
/etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf

and what actually have to change there ? When open it i see like
#config info for eth0:
addr
mask
dhcp
....
#config information for et1:
....
...
and so on

on the bottom see default gateway.

i changed
#conf info for eth1: to eth1:1
but think it's comment coz of "#"
