I'm not sure that you can connect both cards to the same network segment,
atalkd will get confused. Try one at a time and put in the atalkd.conf
just this:
eth0 -phase 2 (or whatever phase you are using)
eth1 -phase 2 (the same here)
In this case atalkd will try to get the addresses from the network for
connected interface. If you have both cards on the same wire the
network addresses will have to be the same. Atalkd is a router, it has to
route between different networks (but you will have only one). This seems
to be the problem. To use both interfaces you need to have two network
segments.
