  You're running Fedora, right?  If so, get to a root shell prompt,
and do the following:

service network stop
cd /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts
mv ifcfg-eth0 ifcfg-tmp
mv ifcfg-eth1 ifcfg-eth0
mv ifcfg-tmp ifcfg-eth1
# now swap the actual network cables (don't type this line :)  )
service network start

  Unless you've got something referencing the actual network
interfaces -- which is unusual, most things use IP addresses -- this
should work fine.  The one question mark might be the firewall.  If
needed, you can reconfigure it using the command:

system-config-securitylevel
