It can be, but /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules tends to be more important - it maps the MAC address to the device name. Then you may also have the HWADDR=<MAC address> option in your /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg=eth? file. That will provent the interface from coming up if the MAC address of the NIC does not match. You can edit the 70-persistent-net.rules file, or you can delete it if you want to renumber the NICs. It will be re-created for you the next time you boot. Change the HWADDR= value requires you do edit the ifcfg-eth? file. (Hand edit or GUI.) Mikkel
After making the udev change I rebooted and it complained of a file system error and requested fsck. It's churning through that now. This is an old computer that I probably shouldn't even be fooling with but I thought it might do some good and I might learn a few things in the process. The latter part is true at least! Thanks.
