Before I am going to active the pppoe interface, I must active the eth0 first. I use dhcp to give a IP address to eth0. But indeed there is no dhcp server in my network. In F8, the NM will get a autoip for eth0 by zeroconf. But in F9, it wouldn't do the same thing for me. So I cound active the pppoe.
Could you tell me how to get a "autoIP" connection in the NM? It seems there is not such a option in the "/usr/bin/nm-connection-editor". 2008/6/24 Dan Williams <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > On Wed, 2008-06-18 at 22:08 +0800, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > hi, > > > > It seems that in F8, when nm failed to get a DHCP reply, it will use > > zeroconf to get a IP address for NIC.
