This morning when I powered on my oS 12.3 laptop, for some reason, I've got a new network interface called "rename4". My regular eth0, ham0, and lo interfaces are there still, but my "sticky" IP address is assigned to this new "rename4" adapter, so it apparently has the MAC address of the physical NIC assigned to it. Has anyone seen this before? It's very odd... chrismyers:/home/cmyers # ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr D2:E1:40:80:0D:3B UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b) ham0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr D6:75:33:46:10:A4 inet addr:25.27.111.106 Bcast:25.255.255.255 Mask:255.0.0.0 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1200 Metric:1 RX packets:4068 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:3600 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:500 RX bytes:2820059 (2.6 Mb) TX bytes:684863 (668.8 Kb) lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:65536 Metric:1 RX packets:317 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:317 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:48010 (46.8 Kb) TX bytes:48010 (46.8 Kb) rename4 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 3C:97:0E:A4:F5:E9 inet addr:172.20.9.87 Bcast:172.20.255.255 Mask:255.255.0.0 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:34591 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:22820 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:29515929 (28.1 Mb) TX bytes:7014888 (6.6 Mb) Interrupt:20 Memory:f5300000-f5320000 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
