You must perform these steps and in this order from the control panel

1. generate a drill file by running the user language program drillcfg.ulp.

2. run the CAM program (select which one you want and open the board file) gerb274x.cam is most widely used.  If a layer shows up as reversed, uncheck it.

3. This will generate several files.  zip up the files ending in .cmp, .sol, .plc, .stc, .sts, and .drd

This zip file can then be uploaded to the board manufacturer.  If you want to check your board with a gerber viewer program, you can select the individual files.

In the future, you can use the default excellon cam job driver. If you don't get the result you expect then you can tell gerbv the format of the excellon file explicitly. Here's the format we use.
So as you can see, it's not an EAGLE issue just a limitation of the guessing algortihm in gerber viewers.
