I believe that people will correct me here. in my general understanding /sbin/ifup and /sbin/ifdown scripts will go to your network config scripts ((RedHat8) have them in /etc/sysconfig/networking/ ) and initialize your nic or UNinitialize it ifup for example runs dhclient to get an ip from the DHCP server. ifdown will do the opposite , it will make the computer think that it has no nic (including address cache cleaning and lots of other stuff). > > lsmod: > [root@localhost sforbes]# lsmod > Module Size Used by Not tainted > 3c59x 27184 0 I have 3c59x module too but here 1 in the "used" row. > pcmcia_core 42272 0 [ds yenta_socket] > [sforbes@localhost sforbes]$ dmesg > Linux version 2.4.19-16mdk ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version 3.2 > (Mandrake Linux 9.0 3.2-1mdk)) #1 Fri Sep 20 18:15:05 CEST 2002
