I would highly recommend you DON'T use "service network restart" if you're using NM. The two are not compatible in many areas. >> I have no opinion on the soundness of this, but "service NetworkManager >> restart" is what I use myself. I believe that's what's required if you do some manual reconfig of the network behind NM's back. > There is a "NM_CONTROLLED" variable that can be set in the ifcfg-* > scripts to use one or the other (although I do not see where my F13 > init.d scripts check for its value.) I'm not sure they do. I believe the idea is that NM would ONLY futz with interfaces marked thus and leave the others alone. With both classic and NM enabled, the normal startup sequence would "service network start" at sequence 10, then "service NetworkManager start" at sequence 23 The way I read it, classic could play with all the NICs and NM would only touch the ones marked "NM_CONTROLLED", undoing what classic did to them. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Systems Engineer, C2 Hosting ricks@xxxxxxxx - - AIM/Skype: therps2 ICQ: 22643734 Yahoo: origrps2 - - - - If this is the first day of the rest of my life... - - I'm in BIG trouble! - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
