Hello all,
I am trying to force the ethernet-card settings on my FC8 machines.
One way of doing this is to use the ifcfg-ethX scripts
(see http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howto-linux-add-ethtool-duplex-settings-permanent.html)
.
This requires that an extra parameter is added to these scripts,
namely ETHTOOL_OPTS.
My question is now whether it is possible to add this line to the
script during installation and (possibly) different for each
interface, e.g.:
cobbler system edit --name=foo --interface=eth1 --
mac=AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:A1 --ip=x.x.x.x --ethopts="speed 100 duplex full
autoneg off"
if not, what would be a good way to do this?
thnx
tom

Seeing the network snippets are complex (understatement!) I think that
(if it's something folks are interested in), might be a nice parameter
to have, that way
folks would not have to modify their own Snippets. (Asking users to
understand how to tweak the network snippet is a bit much, I think, and
it's better that
we do things in ways that save everyone work).
Would someone want to add this?
Adding that parameter on a per-interface basis, defaulting to "", does
not seem to be a bad idea to me.
(We'd want this done on the "master" development branch of course,
rather than applied to 1.6, since it is a new feature)
Hi Michael,
Been away for a while finishing off a long term project
This feature has been on my personal list for a while.
I'll add this next week, unless someone else is already doing it.
Dave Hatton
