From 'apt-cache show ifrename': "Description: Rename network interfaces based on various static criteria Ifrename allow the user to decide what name a network interface will have. Ifrename can use a variety of selectors to specify how interface names match the network interfaces on the system, the most common selector is the interface MAC address." My /etc/iftab looks like this: eth_int mac 00:06:4F:03:FC:D8 eth_ext mac 00:40:F4:54:6F:62 I believe you can also do this by means of udev rules. -- Liam -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
