What command do I use to see see the speed & duplex to which the NIC is
operating?

What command is used to force the setting to a specific values?

Sorry about that lack of info.

Figures, deleted that last week.

You might go back and re-read the url.

might be able to add arguments in /etc/modprobe.conf or
/etc/modules.conf

Did not check to see if argument can be added to
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0


Just a caution, forcing speed can cause slower transfers.
After playing around run ifconfig to check the error values.

Well, there you are, your transmitter is running 100base full duplex.
