It just omits the fact that the fedora/RH way of doing things is to use the ifup and ifdown scripts to gather the saved configuration. # man ifup No manual entry for ifup oops... I guess we can't say RTFM here. Also no one has mentioned the circumstances in which the values from /etc/sysconfig/networking/profiles/default are used instead of the ones you expect. Probably because they can't find the documentation about that either... Does anyone know what makes those files and what triggers their use? -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell@xxxxxxxxx -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
