The NM in F9 supports manual configuration through the applet... right click...edit connections. You can setup both wired and wireless 'connections' manually. I've never had to use it. But i just did it just now to manually set an ip for this machine different from the one my dhcp server is configured to give me and it works. You can setup a static ip.. you can setup a dns server you can even setup the domainname to search. Once manually configured that information is stored in ,gconf down under .system/networking/connections for that user associated with a connection name. You select the connection as named from the list in the applet...and NM will use those manual settings. If the manual setting UI is confusing, and you have some thoughts on how it should be rearranged more intutively, file bugs upstream. If people want to screw around with the gconf keys instead of using the UI...and need documentation on how to generate the gconf files necessary to do this by hand...that is something to take up with the upstream project most likely via its dedicated mailing list or irc channel. If people want to see nm-connection-editor grow cmdline support that is also something to take up with upstream. -jef -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
