Folks, I realize this is off topic, and if anyone can suggest a better source for the question, I'd be glad to go there. Novell SUSE's support is unresponsive, however.

My problem is this: I'm running 9.3 Pro on an Intel server board that has two NIC chips built in (a 10/100 and a GigE). I've since added a Netgear GigE NIC. However, every time I reboot, the NICs assigned to eth0, 1, and 2 all change at random, as do the IP addresses assigned. This happens whether I do anything at all or try to set things up through YaST. I'm trying to set up two subnets off this (samba-run) server, with one NIC (or one IP address) facing the Net and the other two NICs (or IP addresses) having to go through this NIC to get to the Net. It would seem impossible to cable up the LAN if the NIC supporting a given subnet--and its address--keep changing.

How can I stabilize the NIC/IP address/ethx assignments?

What other information does anyone need to help me with this?

Thanks very much.
