Redhat 3 ES set nic to full duplex

I've got a Dell PowerEdge 2650 running the latest Redhat 3.0 ES. Right
now the nic is set at 100 Mbs half-duplex. I've looked around but i
can't seem to find instructions to set it at 100 Mbps full-duplex
permanently.

Any hint would be appreciated.

Thanks

How to force full duplex mode depends on the NIC and it's driver module.
But normally there are external reasons why a driver does not
automatically sets full duplex on.
