Hallo, I wrote a small tool called nameif some time ago. It names network interfaces based on a file containing MAC addresses. This way you can maintain a stable network configuration even when the kernel changes probe orders (e.g. when modules are loaded in a different order or the kernel version changes). Basically it does the same job as scsidev, only for network interfaces. I appended the simple file for reference. There is no man page yet, but I'll write one. Would anyone complain when I add it to net-tools ? -Andi
