Hmmm, that would seem to be a bug in initscripts. ifplugd should not be used in cases of BOOTPROTO=static. In the meantime, echo "MII_NOT_SUPPORTED=yes">> /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1 BTW, quite a few of my interfaces are cards which don't support ifplugd, including the only one configured for static ... and the one that does support it is never disconnected (except when I actually tested ifplugd) ;-). All the tests I did with ifplugd were with machines that use DHCP. Regards, Buchan
