This is going to bite you in the posterior in case of canned OS installations intended to be usable on a wide range of differently configured 'servers' and not supposed to be maintained by anyhow 'UNIX(*)-savy' personnel, IOW, appliance-type installations. I need interface names which are stable, generally predictable (ie, if there are two interfaces they'll end up as eth0 and eth1), machine and NIC-independent and compatible with already existing software. The kernel naming scheme provides pretty much exactly what I need. Consequenstly, I'm determined to keep using it and software which gets in the way will be changed. The nice thing about free software is that one may use it to solve real problems the developers disapprove of. _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
