If you are using this as a firewall, make sure to not have an IPMI port facing the internet. You may have a MAC address in one of your ifcfg-eth* files that does not _exactly_ match the hardware. Sometimes, it can be case-sensitive. pushd /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ mkdir BACKUP mv ifcfg-eth* ./BACKUP/ I would take out all the add-on cards and see if this extra MAC stays around. Put the other cards in one-by-one till found. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
