Most of what you've got here seems correct, there is some junk though. 
I know real men use vi but:)  I'd start with running (RH 6.2) network
configurator, its on control panel or netcfg from command line.  Use
"Interfaces" and "Routing" to setup your nics and default route.  See
what you've got after saving this and we can go from there.

Warning, netcfg has a bug where if your assinging more than 1 route the
default can get set wrong.  Simply save, exit, and re-run netcfg to
verify config setup.
