Sure. I'd always wanted consistent names for the eth interfaces when I set up the cluster but I couldn't get udev to co-operate. Maybe this time!

I don't have the particular file you mention. I do have the following files: 05-udev-early.rules 51-hotplug.rules 60-raw.rules 90-hal.rules bluetooth.rules 40-multipath.rules 60-net.rules 85-pcscd_ccid.rules 90-ib.rules 50-udev.rules 60-pcmcia.rules 90-dm.rules 95-pam-console.rules Not sure how to proceed with udev, but maybe this is OT for this list. -- Rahul
