Check out mii-tool, it should be installed
on your system.

eth0 issue
Howdy:
Brand new to the list, hope to learn and help as much
as I can.
I installed RHEL ES 3.0 on an Intel box. The
install went
smoothly and I am at the point
where I can do just about
all I need. I want to ping an
Windows 2000 server but
I get "Destination Host
Unreachable". I try to ping the
Linux box, but get 'Request timed
out'.
I am able to ping all other machines from other
domains but
the Linux and Windows server aren't
talking to each other.
The IS / network team suggested that because the
network is doing
100T full-duplex, the servers may
not talk to each other
(It is my understanding that the
network auto negotiates, but
that's another story) and I need to
configure my eth0 card
to do 100 Full instead of 100 Half
Duplex (the messages
file confirms that I am doing 100
Half Dup on the Linux box).
Is it possible to force the eth0 card to do 100 Full
on a
auto negotiating network like the
Windows box? If so, how?
Thanks!
