Heh, I can probably HELP with that thread, as I've gotten past that problem. :-) My porblem was with hsi0, not eth0, but it's the same issue: the /sbin/ifdown script is broken somewhere. I haven't taken the time to trouble shoot it, since this trick worked: in the file /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifdown-hsi: DEVICE=echo $1 | sed "s/ifcfg-//" ip link set $DEVICE down and voila, /the /sbin/ifdown buggy code gets bypassed, and the interface is properly shut down.
