Hmm, I thought the Fedora/RHEL initscripts had been renaming eth* devices around for year; is that broken? I guess to me, it would be better to spend time fixing the kernel ordering to follow the motherboard, rather than spend time creating tools to rename some NICs, make sure other tools can handle the new names, etc. -- Chris Adams <[email protected]> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble. _______________________________________________ Linux-PowerEdge mailing list [email protected] https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge Please read the FAQ at http://lists.us.dell.com/faq
