SLES 9 Ethernet Card speed


I am new to linux and have setup a Novell OES SLES 9 linux server. The switch it is connected to is complaining that its trying to communicate at half duplex. I cant find where in linux to set the speed and duplex of the ethernet card.

The card is an intel pro 10/100 card.

Ok, but how do you make those NIC settings persistent, so they stay across reboots? The various "ETHTOOL_OPTS" and "options" lines I've tried are ignored every time. Again, this is SLES 9, at patchlevel 2.
