I've seen this eth0:9 at a friends place,...

We didn't find any other solution than to:

1- unplug the cable modem (that serves as a dhcp server) and wait a minute or so

2- plug back in, and start the network

 

I found after a lot of searching that this eth0:9 has to do with zeroconf; only mandrake users seem to have problems there.

 

One possible solution is to stop your network, then delete (move) the related file in /etc/network/ which is likely called eth0:9 or so....

Then restart the network.

 

Again, I didn't have this problem, and for my friend it works it seems.
