Fellow, I don't know how to change this configuration. I am used to Mandriva Linux. Promiscuous mode means that the NIC will anser to any requisition that reaches its interface. If you have other devices on that LAN, this will knock them out. It is a feature that is useful only when configuring an out-of-the-box equipment. so, with a cross-cable you enter it by any IP and put it on properly, disabling, then, the promiscuous mode. Besides this is a word to be avoided anyway. :) Carpe diem! -- Ms. Eng. Fernando Augusto Bender Pesquisador em Controle Automático 51 8401 4413 Use Linux: http://www.debian.org Comer, beber e amar.
