Well, I have tried using ifdown eth1 && ifup eht1 , and that stops and restart the ETH1 card, but the counters all stay the same. I have even tried ifconfig down && ifconfig up on the same card and same results. I looked at the man ifconfig and man mii-tool but nothing on resetting the counters. Surly there is a way to do this with out bringing the network down or rebooting. I cant really do either easily as this server is a pretty heavily used server and it would cause quite a stir if it went off line even for a few seconds.
Anyone else have any possible ideas? Thanks for the reply :) -- Joe Giles [EMAIL PROTECTED] AOL: mcigiles ------- Registered Linux User #264910 http://counter.li.org ------- Rodolfo J.
