Thanks to all that answered.
Thanks to all that suggested that we put our lan_config changes in the
/etc/init.local file. And the others who suggested that we put changes in
the /etc/rc.config file:
IFCONFIG_0="xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask 255.255.255.0 speed 200"
export IFCONFIG_0
Special thanks to Chris Ford of Acxiom for pointing out that if I did indeed
issued the ifconfig ee0 down command during working hours, that I wouldn't
have to worry about users logging off the box, because I would've dropped
their connections.
Another Special thanks for Yogesh Bhanu of GSF in Germany, for giving me the
lan_config command to try in my case, lan_config -i ee0 -m utp -s 100 -x 1.
Special thanks to Bryan LaVelle of HP for pointing out that we can't use
ifconfig on an ee type device, that lan_config must be used.

Subject: Using ifconfig
Tru64 V5.0.
Right now, I have an interface, ee0, which was auto negotiated @ 100 Half
and I want to set the interface to 100 Full duplex. According to the Tru64
faq, I can issues two commands to take care of this problem.
ifconfig ee0 down speed 200
ifconfig ee0 up
My question is, can I issue these commands at anytime? OR should I wait
until most of our users have logged off to issues these commands?
TIA,
