My recollection is that mii-tool(8) tends to work where ethtool(8) does not, but it's been a while since I've had to worry. > sudo ethtool -s eth0 autoneg off speed 1000 duplex full Note that GigE needs to know which end is primary and which end is secondary, so if you disable autoneg then you also need to tell the device which side of the link it is. GigE is Point-to-Point. On FreeBSD, this is typically managed with ifconfig and using the link0 media option (strictly speaking, varies by driver). I've no idea how Linux manages this, but hopefully this is enough to get you pointed in the right direction? -Phil _______________________________________________ Tech mailing list Tech@lists.lopsa.org https://lists.lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tech This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
