Setting for full duplex?

How do I force my network card to full duplex?

I know how to make the setting static but it does not survive a reboot. (mii-tool eth0 --force=100baseTx-HD) or (ethtool -s eh0 duplex full).

I beleive that the setting somehow has to be hard coded in module.conf. I don't know how.

I think the module is named e100.
The network device is "Integrated intel Pro/100 VM Network Connction".

How do I set it to full duplex and survive a reboot?

Just put the ethtool command at the end of rc.local and it will be set on each boot.

Okay. That seemed to work.

Thanks
