I've been using Redhat based systems (with a slight dabbling into Neveah
Linux that still gives me cold sweats at night :-) ) for over 10 years now
and I've never seen anything that messes with the ifcfg-eth* scripts on a
reboot.
I was also going to suggest setting the immutable bit on the files as Adam
shows above as a short term fix, but you need to find out exactly what is
going on--I'm instantly suspicious of anything that would overwrite stuff
like that. I'd start with /etc/rc and go through each subsequent script
that gets executed on startup. Heck, just grepping for ifcfg in /etc/*
would be a good start.
Good luck,
Mike
