My router has an internal interface eth0 and an external eth1. Rebooting swaps the interfaces some times, and the pppoe points to the internal LAN, with obvious results. I could fix the problem by using the MAC address (HWADDR variable in ifcfg-eth{0,1}), but I don't want to do that because I need to be able to move the disks to another machine with similar hardware and power up with zero configuration change (this is done for disaster recovery, and the disks are not really moved, just rsync'ed). Will the new initscripts be useful for me? Best regards. -- Roberto Ragusa mail at robertoragusa.it
