[PLUG] remove an interface without rebooting?

["Sean R. Cummins" <scummins@e-vend.net>]

Hey guys,

Does anyone know of a way to remove a network interface in Linux without
rebooting?  In Solaris, this would just be "ifconfig <ifname> unplumb" but I
can't seem to find a Linux equivalent.. Just wondering, mostly out of
curiosity...

Thanks.

- Sean
