As far as I can see, 70-persistent-net.rules just maps each MAC address on a machine to an interface, as also does ifcfg-ethX . Neither seems to me to associate an interface, say eth1, to a LAN, say 192.168.2.0 . > http://wiki.alteeve.com/index.php/Changing_the_ethX_to_Ethernet_Device_Mapping_in_EL6_and_Fedora_12%2B I'll study that, thanks. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
