Worth noting that I did not remove /etc/init.d/net.eth0 and upon rebooting a box I couldn't connect to it via ssh! This was despite having changed the firewall interface in the iptables rules to the new NIC name. Thankfully I had physical access. sshd complained that net.eth0 was not available. I deleted the /etc/init.d/net.eth0 symlink and rebooted. No more problems. -- Regards, Mick
