I know at a minimum Dell, IBM and HP have the issue. I would expect its actually a broadcom and/or intel nic (driver ?) issue. I have used ifrename in the past to accomplish this, but it seems with rhel5 ifrename doesnt work on boot. Is there a way to static-map a MAC to a particular interface in rhel ? Regards.

I am in the midst of building several new servers using RHEL4U4. I had not yet released them to production use and saw that U5 was available. I thought what better time to do it than right now when I have the ability to deal with anything untoward. Well, the untoward comes in the form of the nics getting flipped. After the update, I rebooted the machines and none of them came back online. I had to make all of the eth0's eth1's and vice versa. This has occurred on HP and Dell servers. Has anyone else seen this? Just curious.
