Hi, We need to configure a network interface on one of our machines so that it always gets set to promiscuous mode. So far I have manually issued "ifconfig eth1 promisc" but I wouldn't like to do this every time the interface has been brought down and up again. According to /usr/share/doc/initscripts-7.93.25.EL/sysconfig.txt there used to be a "PROMISC=yes" option that could be used in the "/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1" file but apparantely this option is deprecated and the file reads "To properly set these, use the packet socket interface." So far I haven't been able to find any documentation on this packet socket interface. How can I configure this netwxork interface to always come up in promiscuous mode? Thanks in advance.
