Original question

I've been introduced to a great new command , it is called
lan_config.
What this does is modify the EWA?_MODE settings at the SRM console
without having to take the system down. It helped me greatly with some
troubleshooting of a quirky network problem I was having on my DE500 (
10/100 Mbit Ethernet i/f ).
Within the man page it explains that once you reboot you will loose
these settings.
However they can be placed within rc.config.
Has anyone done this ? , and if so what is the syntax within rc.config
?

Solution from Adam Bentley ( ccx009_at_coventry.ac.uk )
I use /etc/inet.local and stuff it in there.....
/sbin/ifconfig tu0 down
/usr/sbin/lan_config -i tu0 -a 1 -m utp -s 100 -x 1
/sbin/ifconfig tu0 up
