To remove an interface, execute ifconfig <device> down. Make sure your not bring ing up the virtual/alias interface in some startup script. Look through your ifcfg-eth* files and make sure eth0:3 is not in there. Ezra On 6/1/07, Dave Martini 1 <martini1@xxxxxxxx> wrote:
I have RHEL4 and should there always be an associated ifcfg-eth file in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts for each device that shows up when doing an ifconfig -a. When I do ifconfig -a I see eth0:1 and eth0:3 but I don't have an associated eth0:3 file in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts. Does anyone know where it might be getting the eth0:3 from? I have these machines on a private as well as public network could it be getting the eth0:3 from one of the other hosts on the private because the IP associated with eth0:3 belongs to one of my other servers on the private. What's the proper command to delete eth0:3 for good? /etc/sysconfig]#cd network-scripts/ [root@ct /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts]#ls ifcfg-eth0 ifcfg-eth3 ifdown-ippp ifdown-post ifup ifup-ipsec ifup-plip ifup-routes init.ipv6-global ifcfg-eth0:1 ifcfg-lo ifdown-ipsec ifdown-ppp ifup-aliases ifup-ipv6 ifup-plusb ifup-sit network-functions ifcfg-eth1 ifdown ifdown-ipv6 ifdown-sit ifup-ib ifup-ipx ifup-post ifup-sl network-functions-ipv6 ifcfg-eth2 ifdown-aliases ifdown-isdn ifdown-sl ifup-ippp ifup-isdn ifup-ppp ifup-wireless orig.ifcfg-eth3.02apr07 -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
