Hi every
What is the matter with fedora 9?
it introduced a NetworkManager which prohibits networking.
NetworkMangler has been around since FC6 (at least), by making it the
default it became impossible to ignore. It does the right thing in
cases where you have one hardwire or wireless connection which can see
only one AP. For all other cases wait for the human readable
documentation which will be here... or maybe not, since it was coming
with FC7, 8, and 9.
After about a dozen installs of Fedora 9 I cannot agree with you on
that. On every system save one there is only one network connection, in
each of those cases it's been /dev/eth0 and NM would not enable the
connection by default.
Maybe there's documentation on the way that will make NM a breeze to
configure but until that time it's out the window. I disable the
NetworkManager service and enable the network service during kickstart
installs. All my systems have a statically leased DHCP address and it
works just fine.
Bottom line for me: NM breaks far more than it fixes.
