I'd say this is extremely critical because - it happens not only when configuration changes, but also between reboots without any changes - most modern PC have more than one interfaces because the firewire interface is detected as a network device, too. - it will render servers in remote locations randomly unaccessible after reboot, and people not familiar with udev will be absolutely stumped as to why even if they get access again after the next reboot... I hope this will be solved soon! cheers -- vbi -- Fang jetzt zu leben an, und z\xE4hle jeden Tag als ein Leben f\xFCr sich. -- Lucius Annaeus Seneca (4-65 n.Chr.)
