After reboot, it came back the same way. This was with two different nics. I have eth0 as sk98lin and eth1 as 8139too, but originally they were reversed. Originally, I tried swapping them, but something else was causing them to keep coming back so that eth0 was the 8139. The solution I provided earlier was the only way I could get it to work and stay through reboots. I'm sure there are other ways to do it (besides swapping cables) but that was what worked for me. -- David ----------------------------------------------------------------------- There are only 10 kinds of people in this world, those who understand binary, and those who don't.
