I manage five Dell servers, running FC1, with NetXtreme BCM5701 NICs. They use drivers that have to be downloaded and compiled, which works great, except that when an updated kernel RPM gets installed (either manually or via yum), /etc/modules.conf gets re-written and the eth0 & eth1 modules get changed from bcm5700 to tg3. Occasionally, these machines get rebooted, and if the modules.conf file doesn't get changed to load the compiled modules, we lose network connectivity to the machines. Does anyone know what causes the file to get re-written, or how to change this behavior? Thanks. -- ------------- Ben Brown http://www.xthorsworld.com/
