Not true. At least some OS's (Ubuntu to name one) assigns persistent names to NIC's based on their MAC. It might be convenient for you to be able to switch between virtual, bridged and usermode networking, but keep the same MAC (and hence interface name). -- Soren Hansen Ubuntu Server Team http://www.ubuntu.com/
