Problem with network rules

Problem with network rules

[Piter PUNK]

Hi,

	I got from one of our users one strange "log". The guy have
a rule for this card, nameing the card as eth1 but the module doesn't
understand that, take a look:

---------------from user--------------------------------------------
[root@localhost rules.d]# cat network-devices.rules
# Local network rules to name your network cards.
# These rules were generated by nethelper.sh, but you can customize
# them if needed.
#
# If you delete this file, /lib/udev/nethelper.sh will try to
# generate it again the next time udev is started.

--------------from user------------------------------------

	Anyone had a tip of why this thing is happening?
	The udev is udev-096. And i thanks any help... i had
sis900 cards embedded in my notebook and built-in in a old
SiS MotherBoard... and i can't reproduce the error...

				Thanks for your help,

You need linux-2.6.16.x >= 2.6.16.10 for this to work.

The kernel in slackware-current is the 2.6.16.27. But, maybe
the guy with the problem are using one older version. I will
ask to him.

Thanks to give a clue to me -;)
