Sorry, It doesn't make any difference.
Please, note that I CAN start up / shutdown de interface as a normal 
user, the problem is that the lights don't flash, and the traffic is not 
shown.
I was googling for a while, and I've found plenty of suggestions about 
seting the correct LCK.. file, suid ifup/ifdown, etc., but all of them 
have to do with the hability to start/stop the service, which works 
absolutely fine for me.

Thanks!
