Delete /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules This associated network interfaces with MAC addresses, so the cards come up the same way each time. your problem is caused by the file on the new box containing the MAC addresses of the cards on the original box, so it creates two more. A similar thing happens if you replace a network card. Delete the file and it starts again at zero. -- Neil Bothwick Windows Error #05: Nonexisent error. This cannot really be happening
