There are a couple ways.
The better way is to edit the ifcfg-ethx files which are located in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/. The sample (filename = ifcfg-eth0) below shows what I am talking about.
Not to look a gift horse in the mouth but that seems a wee bit too easy.. what if anything do I need to do about my modprob.conf
cat /etc/modprobe.conf include /etc/modprobe.conf.dist alias eth0 3c59x alias eth1 via-rhine alias eth2 epic100
how do those ethX relate to the ifcfg-ethX in sysconfig/network-scripts? Is Modprob saying eth0 is the 3com and then ifcfg is saying No it's eth4 (as a bad example)

What if you have three cards of the same type?

I would remove all 3 cards, and reboot to allow kudzu to remove all 3 devices. Then add all 3 back in and do the config at boot time. This way they are configured in the order detected and that should be the order they are configured on every boot.
