If you have mii-tool installed you can force the NIC to 100MB-FD by running the following command: mii-tool -F 100baseTx-FD eth0. To force this on a reboot use the full path command and stick it in your /etc/rc.local file.

We've set the port on the switch to be 100/full. I've also set my linux boxes to 100 full using "ethtool -s eth0 speed 100 duplex full autoneg off" and everything works great. So, I have two questions: 1. When a machine is rebooted it defaults to 100 half-duplex instead of 100/full. How can I get it to stay at 100 full? 2. If there a way to configure this via kickstart? I'm worried that when a machine needs to be rebuilt, this setting won't take effect. Any help is appreciated....thanks, Ryan -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
