Yup. I had the same problem. Soltuion: use nameif You can call any interface anything you want. Turning off auto negotiation and flow control may be an option when you load the moadule (check docs)-- example: if it is a 3com 100mbps 905b - you may be able to use ethtool to change it. -----Original Message----- From: lartc-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:lartc-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of anupam chomal Sent: Thursday, July 15, 2004 3:51 AM To: lartc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Problem with multiple N/W cards Hi, I am trying to set up a linux box with 5 N/W cards of which one is 10/100/1000T and the others are 10/100T. I connected all the cards and turned on the machine. I wanted to force eth0 to be the 1000T cards but the cards get allotted eth0 to eth4 randomly. Is there some way wherein I can force my 1000T card to be eth0. Also I want to turn off auto negotation & flow control on the 1000T card. How can I do this. Can someone please help. _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/ _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
