You can't have one card at CLASSC.94 and the other at CLASSC.99.  It no
workie, as you've found out.

Internal networks are normally wired with 10.0.0.x or 192.168.x.x values,
since those are private range numbers that are never used in the real world.

Under normal conditions, one card is used to access the outside world and
the other the internal world.  The Linux box is then used as the firewall
and Nat box for the internal network.

Why would you want two network cards on the same network in the same box?
It doesn't gain you anything.
