This update is to correct a slight mistatement by Bill as regards HP-PB
and EISA. It is a the EISA card that cannot go to full Duplex.
Thanks to Rick Jones for the correction.

Summary:

Many thanks to the very many who replied (and still are).

Most said the setting should be set to "100FD"
Some said I was editing the wrong file and it should be "
/etc/rc.config.d/hpbase100conf"
Some gave the command line required for changing the settings. "lanadmin
-X 100FD ppa/nmid".
Some said check for patches required to make this work.

Hi,
I have a HP-PB 100 BASE TX card (btlan1) card on a K360 running 10.20. It
is currently set to 10 MBt Half Duplex. I believe this can be set to 100
Mbt Full Duplex. I modified the file /etc/rc.config.d/hpbasetconf to
have the value "HP_BASET_DUPLEX[0]=FD". I was given this value by HP
support. However on reboot this failed with the message "ERROR: Invalid
duplex value [FD] for lan3 interface".
Is this saying that the value "FD" is invalid. If so does anyone know the
correct value to be used here?
Or is it saying that this card cannot be set to 100 Mbt full duplex?

regards,

Julian
