Network Duplex settings

[Matthew Carpenter]

Now I have never run into a problem with this, since Linux drivers seem to
autonegociate pretty well even with 3com cards  :)
But I would like to know if anyone can tell me just how you set a NIC to
be hard-coded at 100/FD...  I ran across my first case of needing to do
this today, as we have a linux box plugged into a Cat2900 with 100/FD
non-auto settings for the port.  Taking care of this was as easy as
setting the switchport to auto and bouncing the interface, HOWEVER, that
is against the corporate standards, so I need to know how to do this in
the future without fiddling with the switch.

Thanks!
Matt
