Original Problem:
One of the things that I check each day in a script is if my network card has
an TX/RX errors. After I get a notice about it I would like the error counter
to get reset so I can easily determine which day the error happened on. I
checked the man pages but didnt see anything. Bringing the interface up/down
or plumbing/unplumbing isn't an option for obvious reasons. Does anyone know?

Answer:
You can't clear the counters.

Solution:
Keep the value of the counters in a file and reference it.
