Hi digimer, Sorry, I made a mistake. "... After rebooting centos generates a device called /dev/et0. ..." should be "... After rebooting centos generates a device called /dev/eth0. ..."

Re: [CentOS] rename network card device /dev/p3p2 to /dev/eth0
Check for a typo where you got the 'et0', that's not a normal name (emX, ethX, pXpY and wlanX are the usual). As for a general comment/guide; make sure you've updated the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-X files (note the DEVICE="..." and HWADDR="..." lines). Here's a general guide for renaming devices under EL6 (inc. CentOS 6.3, which I rename NICs under often without trouble). digimer On 09/27/2012 01:19 AM, KNOPS Manfred wrote: > Hello, > > My name is Manfred.

[CentOS] rename network card device /dev/p3p2 to /dev/eth0
Hello, My name is Manfred. I have to install a flexlm license server on a pc with centos 6.3 as operating system. This machine contains two network cards. An Ethernet card and a wifi card. For the Ethernet card centos generates a device called p3p2. For the wifi card centos generates a device called wlan0. In this configuration the flexlm license program called lmgrd only got the mac address of wlan0. The vendor daemon got no mac address as host ID. Yesterday I made one test. Therefore I edited /etc/udev/rules.d/70-peristant-net.rules. This file contains only one line. This line defines how to name the device for the wifi card. I changed the name Option from name="wlan0" to name="eth0". After rebooting centos generates a device called /dev/et0. Both lmgrd and vendor daemon found the host ID. But lmgrd and safetech can't communicate together. As next I will try to rename /dev/p3p2 which is the device for the Ethernet card. I guess, if I can generate a device called /dev/eth0 for the Ethernet card the license server should work. But in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persitant-net.rules is no rule for this device. How can I configure centos to generate /dev/eth0 for the Ethernet card?
