We've just moved one a new server from our sever room, where I built it, to the datacenter. We want to force autoneg off, and tell it gigabit and full duplex. Using ethtool, I get no errors setting the speed or duplex. HOWEVER, autoneg on works... and autoneg off utterly refuses to work, and gives:
ethtool -s eth0 autoneg off Cannot set new settings: Invalid argument not setting autoneg
Did you turning off autoneg at the same time you set the speed and duplex?
ethtool -s eth0 speed 1000 duplex full autoneg off
