I think we can be positively sure that write_net_rules did not invent these MAC addresses by itself, so if it created rules for eth0 and eth1 with two different MAC addresses there has to be a reason. eth2 looks like a firewire interface. > Unfortunately the above rules broke, and I ended up with eth0 being > not accessible. I only had eth0, and it wasn't the correct device. So I suppose that your current ethernet card was 00:0b:2f:6d:19:2b and it was renamed to eth1? > Comments??? Just asking the maintainer works too, I am not sure if this is a topic of general interest. Send mail or look for me on IRC if you need more help. -- ciao, Marco
