Thanks to Wolfgang from > debian-...@lists.debian.org
the following did the trick:
IMO this is not a network card issue.
I guess renaming the interface names would help.
Only do the following if the system isn't used by anyone else...
(0) Put down the MAC addresses of eth3 and eth4 (eth4 should be eth0 and
eth3 should be eth1 later)
(1) Remove 'net.ifnames=0' from the kernel command line in /etc/default/grub
(2) Run 'update-grub'
(3) Reboot. 'ip a' will show you the persistent network interface names
(probably something like enpXsY, where Y is the slot name) and MACs
(4) Add MAC matching lines at the begin of /etc/network/interfaces, e.g.:
rename enp0s3=eth0
rename enp0s8=eth1
(5) Reboot and check if everything works, otherwise fix the renaming lines

Hi folks!
Situation:
Debian-Edu 10 Server with
eth0 NC(=unused)
00:19.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82566DM-2 Gigabit Network
Connection (rev 02)
Subsystem: Fujitsu Technology Solutions 82566DM-2 Gigabit
Network Connection
Kernel driver in use: e1000e

I can reach tjener via fibre cable and switch and use it with scp, smb
and so on.
But dhcp, bxe-boot and ltsp-clients don't work.
dhcp requests via
#dhclient eth4
need about 70 seconds to give me an ip. Network manager already gives up
in that time. Even connecting direct (with a media converter, not using
other fiber cables or switches) doesn't work.
So cable/switch don't seam to hurt.
How can I tell 82571EB to do its work?
If I switch eth4's address to eth0 (copper) everything works fine. So
services seem to be running
appreciating any answer
