I was actually only speaking of 192.168.1.54 on eth0... but probably
didn't make it clear.

Well, the odd address ending 54 disappeared from ifconfig -a output
but still `interfaces' says
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inert dhcp
And the actual network shows up on eth1 in ifconfig -a output:
ifconfig -a
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:40:f4:b5:29:41
UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
[...]
eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:11:09:ee:6c:04
inet addr:192.168.1.42 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

That turns up some files, but I don't recognize any that I know to be
other networking tool files.
(I added the -l flag and screened out /etc/mail files
<I have lots of junk in there>, and files ending in ~):
grep -rl 'eth[01]' /etc |grep -v 'etc/mail\|~$'
