Hello,
I want to configure my network-card to run in full-duplex mode. The description above from raj seems to work for me but I want to understand my settings (SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10): contents of /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth-id-00:14:5e:cc:40:ee Code:
BOOTPROTO='none' ETHTOOL_OPTIONS='speed=100 duplex=full autoneg=off' NAME='IBM NetXtreme II BCM5708 Gigabit Ethernet' STARTMODE='off' UNIQUE='rBUF.2uuZ5oJ5QB6' USERCONTROL='no' _nm_name='bus-pci-0000:03:00.0' A grep over my etc-directory (grep -ri ethtool .) shows me only the entries in ifcfg*-files. And here another confusing message (from /var/log/boot.msg): Code:
eth0 device: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM5708 Gigabit Ethernet (rev 11)
eth0 configuration: eth-id-00:14:5e:cc:40:ee
eth0 Startmode is 'off'
skipped eth1 device: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM5708 Gigabit Ethernet (rev 11)
eth1 configuration: eth-id-00:14:5e:cc:40:f0
eth1 Startmode is 'off'
skipped bond0
"ethtool bond0 speed=100 duplex=full autoneg=off" failed.
bond0 enslaving interfaces: eth0 eth1
bond0 IP address: 10.40.0.16/22 as bonding master
doneSetting up service network . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .done
Who can help me?

This is a reply to an old thread but I thought I'd point out that on SLES 11 you need to remove the "=". All works well after that.
