I just tried the following: 1. remove network card drivers (e100 - pci wired, wvlan_cs - pcmcia wireless) rmmod wvlan_cs rmmod e100 2. add the following entries to modules.conf alias eth0 wvlan_cs alias eth1 e100 3. insert the drivers in the wrong order insmod e100 insmod wvlan_cs 4. now e100 is eth0, and wvlan_cs is eth1. The assignment is in the order of detection - irrespective of the entry in modules.conf Satish -- Shrike-list mailing list Shrike-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/shrike-list
