So here is my problem: I'm unable to remove an interface on CentOS 5.4 (/etc/init.d/network restart keeps enabling it again)

Background: The system had several interfaces set (eth0 eth0.6 eth0.7 eth0.8) 1.) I added a test interface...eth0.9 2.) but later deleted the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0.9 file (since i no longer needed it) 3.) I then did ifconfig eth0.9 down 4.) I then setup eth0.7 with the same IP address settings that eth0.9 had. 5.) Upon a restart of /etc/init.d/network all the interfaces come up including eth0.9

This obviously causes a problem...are there any recommendations how to remove this "deleted" interface? Many thanks!

Side note: rebooting the computer isn't an option.
