Thanks for the reply.
Unfortunately it doesn't work. Either linux doesn't forward the packets (what
would usually be the point as the wire on the interface is not plugged in) or
vmware server requires the interface to be up for the bridge to route packets.Si

Sorry for asking the question here, but I know somebody is bound to know.Is
there a way to force the media state of an interface to be up even when there's
no network link on the interface?I am running a vmware bridge on an interface
which works perfectly when there is something plugged in but stops when the
interface is down.I've had a google and not found anything as yet.Many thanks.Si
