AFAIK udev rules allow you to rename your network device to any name *except* to eth. The eth namespace is reserved for the kernel, and udev will refuse to rename anything to that. But it should work for any other name you choose, like lan0, net0, etc. I remember reading about this somewhere, but atm cannot find the right link. But the essential explanation is given here: http://lists.us.dell.com/pipermail/linux-desktops/2011-February/003762.html The only thing I can think of is to pass biosdevname=0 net.ifnames=0 to the kernel, and hope. But the real solution is to talk to Matlab developers and ask them to fix their software (if you paid for it, you should have some leverage in that). The eth namespace is not coming back, and the sooner they fix their software, the better for their customers.
