-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Michael Scottaline Sent: Thursday, November 29, 2001 9:12 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Shutting Down network connection On my one mandrake laptop, I can disconnect from my network (to leave my office) by gracefully disconnecting from the network with "ifdown eth0" and then later, after reconnecting the cat5 cable, "ifup eth0". These commands don't seem to exist in my RH 7.2 laptop. Is there a way of shutting down the network card, temporarily, and then restarting it, (before unplugging the cable)? I tried "ifconfig eth0 down", but no luck there either.
