"Helpful" software such as NetworkManager has a habit of getting in the way of figuring out what is wrong with systems, especially networked ones. Since none of the 8 computers on my home LAN are ever used in different locations, I don't use NetworkManager (etc.): I don't see why such add-ons are useful unless the computer is used on multiple networks. But distros install a lot of stuff in an attempt to "simplify" Linux for newbies. (Even Windows, which now may have more millions of experienced users than brand new users, acts as if no one has ever used a computer before.) -- Visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list ISC funds the development of this software with paid support subscriptions.
