Where is eth0/eth1/assigned -
I am still struggling with this f10 install. It appeared that the NIC in eth0 was no good. I pulled it out and left the second card which was/is eth1. It looks to me like that designation eth1 might be changed to eth0 using ethtool but if so, I can't find the right command. I have used service-config-network to set it up as 192.168.1.10 and eth1, network-scripts is set up for eth1. but no matter what I do a ping to another computer yields "Network is unreachable." This is a wired connection. I've tried a different cat5 cable. "ethtools eth1" looks ok compared to the other computers. Not sure what I have missed but it would be simpler perhaps if I could convince the NIC that it was eth0 instead of eth1 but I can't determine how that is set. Any help appreciated. I am about at wits end.

Did a little googling of "udev eth designation" and found this:
http://www.mepis.org/node/10770
The short of it is to edit /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules.
You can remove the line for eth0, then take the line for eth1, and as long
as the "ATTR{address}" line matches the MAC address of your current eth1
NIC, just change:
NAME="eth1"
to
NAME=eth0"
Reboot, and voila!!!

You are correct, I had considered it might be tied to a MAC address!
But I never would have found that file without your help.
Now I have to fix the rest of the network config stuff.
Thanks much.

This time eth0 came up right and I did the routine things to make the network connection for 192.168.1.10 and it is happily running a yum update at last! Thanks all for the assistance.

Is there a way to have the udev changes read by the kernel and other OS
bits without having to reboot the box?

You can try "udevadm control --reload_rules" - this will tell udevd
about the rule changes. You will probably have to remove and
re-install the NIC module for the change to take affect. You will
have to bring down eth1 before removing the module, and you will
want to bring up eth0 after re-installing it.

Here's what I did: 1. stopped the network 2. unloaded both NICs' modules 3. made my changes to "/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules" 3. reloaded the udev rules 4. loaded the NIC modules 5. restarted the network Thanks! -- Kanwar Ranbir Sandhu Linux 2.6.27.21-170.2.56.fc10.x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux 09:19:52 up 27 days, 10:29, 4 users, load average: 0.12, 0.13, 0.18 -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
