We use this for forcing the duplex to 100 at boot time.

# more /sbin/ifup-pre-local
#!/bin/sh
if test "x$1" = "xeth0"; then
        /sbin/ifconfig eth0 up
        /sbin/ethtool -s eth0 autoneg off speed 100 duplex full
fi
exit 0

I'm aware of how to manually assign a static address to aninterface,
however, I'm getting notices that there's a duplex mismatch.. switch is set
to 100baseT and I believe the eth0 is set to auto ( is that the setting by
default?)


How do I set the interface to full duplex or 100baseT and what syntax can I
use.. if my ip was 192.168.1.100/24


ifconfig eth0 inet addr 192.168.1.100 netmask 255.255.255.0 up (what would
be the correct syntax to set the media type to 100baseT)


Or is there a file in /etc that you can set the auto start parameters for
eth0 ?


Any help is well appreciated.. right now the box periodically drops ssh
sessions due to packet loss..
