I remember trying a while back, and I don't think you can...just on a 2950. I will try a few more things, and post back...

Use the port group X command on the interfaces you want to channel , where X is the channel number .

vipergg,

Thanks for your reply. Can I create 4 channels/groups (2 ports in each channel/group)?

Thanks,
JR

yes you can make 4 groups with 2 members per channel.. keep in mind that a port channel doesn't fully increase your bandwidth.. depending on how the hashing works out 3/4 of your traffic could still use one of the paths.. most people think that it will even load balance, which is not true.
