Correct me if I'm wrong, but mii-tool doesn't support (work
properly?) on gigabit interfaces. I use ethtool with great success
and use it on all servers.
In "/etc/rc.local" I put "/usr/local/sbin/ethtool -s eth0 speed 100
duplex full autoneg off" Which works just fine. Is there a better
way?
Mii-tool is indeed not suitable for Gigabit NIC's, so you should use
modules options or ethtool instead. Most of the time I use ethtool but
sometimes mii-tool recognizes 10/100 NIC's chip sets which ethtool doesn't.

Part of the net-tools rpm is /sbin/mii-tool (mii-tool --help). You
could use "#] mii-tool -F 100basetx-FD eth0" instead.
Isn't mii-tools going away in favor of ethtool?
