These values are all set in the config file installed with the
kernel-image package.

I rebooted and did an lsmod and saw af_packet was installed. I typed
ifconfig and it only listed the loopback interface. I did "ifup eth0"
and it said the connection was already configured. So, I finally did
"ifdown eth0" and then "ifup eth0" and the connection came up!
Rebooting, I had to go through the same steps to get the interface
online. Any ideas on that?
