-nameif (man 8 nameif) this sound cool just to have a net call
servers, dnz, newbys, really rocks :)
-hard code your mac addresses in the config file
/etc/network/interfaces
#man interfaces defines how
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
hwaddr 00:20:18:10:72:76
address 199.105.37.102
netmask 255.255.255.0
broadcast 199.105.37.255
gateway 199.105.37.1
