Some program re-writes /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth? when I re-boot. (I'm running FC-6.) Does anyone know what program this is? And if it can be persuaded to desist? In principle, I don't think any program should modify config files without at least informing the user. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail (<80k only): tim /at/ birdsnest.maths.tcd.ie tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland
