OK, a colleague gave the hint to check the order of network
devices. In fact, 2.4 and 2.6 associate eth0 and eth1
differently to the network interface cards! After using the
other interface, everything went fine.
Question: Is there a way to force the system to use a specific
interface card for eth0? Something in /etc/modules or
/etc/network/interfaces?
Thanks in advance!
