I will try this and report the results. When I first tried changing the interface, I edited /etc/network/interfaces as I described and removed the file /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net-rules, and then rebooted. The latter file was recreated during the boot process, by some script invoked by some other script invoked by .... This is where I get lost. I don't know where those programs found the old eth0 information to put in the new rules file that was created. But I will try writing a new rules file; maybe that will work. Is there some set of services I can restart instead of doing a full reboot to update the network interface? cgm -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
