ubuntu network not auto-starting

'Aloo all.

I just migrated my server from gentoo to ubuntu 6.06 server. Everything seems to be fine except for the fact that the network interfaces are not starting on boot (other than the fact that ubuntu decided my previously happy eth0 is now eth2, even though I only have 2 nic cards...). Here's what I have for the configs:

--------------------------------
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface
#auto eth0
#iface eth0 inet dhcp
iface eth2 inet static
    address my.ip.addr.ess
    netmask 255.255.255.252
    broadcast my.brd.cast.addr
    gateway my.gate.way.addr

iface eth1 inet static
    address 192.168.0.1
    netmask 255.255.255.0
    network 192.168.0.0
    broadcast 192.168.0.255
--------------------------------

Networking is set to start at the current runlevel (2, which is kind of weird, I always used 3: multi-user/networking). In fact, during boot, I see the messages "Starting networking" (or something similar). What am I missing? I can find no error messages in any of the logs.

/yes, am an ubuntu noob. not a linux noob, though.

Thanks,
David
