First, get a list of the connections, such as: sudo nmcli connection show OR sudo nmcli connection show --active (for only active ones) and locate the connection you wish to modify, then: sudo nmcli connection modify --temporary <connname> gateway <ipaddr> should change it temporarily. If you omit the "--temporary", it should make a permanent change. The command is buried in the nmcli man page, but the parameters are hidden in the nm-settings(5) man page under the "ipv4" section. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Systems Engineer, AllDigital ricks@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx - - AIM/Skype: therps2 ICQ: 22643734 Yahoo: origrps2 - - - - I won't rise to the occasion, but I'll slide over to it. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
