I suppose if desperate you could stop NM, and go back to giving the settings in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth? Actually, I have had the opposite experience. After endless problems with NM in Fedora-7 and Fedora-8, it has recently (I assume because of an NM update) started working faultlessly in F-8 and F-9. It is a major drawback in NM, in my opinion, that it is very hard to diagnose what is wrong if it is not working. As far as I can see, the only information available is that in /var/log/messages ; "grep NetworkManager /var/log/messages" has occasionally given me something helpful, though usually I find the entries unintelligible, eg "(eth1) Supplicant interface state change: 1 -> 2". -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
