Actually, the assignment order is determined by the kernel itself. I had an incident where botting to an updated kernel reversed the eth0/1 binding to the physical card. Booting back to the older card reverted them back.
The best sure fire way to bind them would be: 1) use different model cards 2) load the drivers as modules & modify the /etc/modules.conf file accordingly. This puts more control in your hands rather than the kernel. -Rob > At 11:20 AM 1/9/2002 -0800, Jackrabbit Slim wrote: > >Thanks, I got them configured.
