Hi, maybe someone can give me a hint about where to start debugging:
I am using Ubuntu 9.04 on several machines. On some machines Network Manager works as expected when making connections system wide available with the connection editor: It puts a file into /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections. When starting nm-connection-editor, they appear as connections, and they can be used as normal. But then on two of my machines this does not work. When setting connections to system wide availability, it puts a file into /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections as well, but then does not find it again, as if the file would not exist. Network connections are not configured, and nm-connection-editor does not find it (i.e. does not display the connection). I wrote a little tool to fetch connections from dbus. It works on those machines where nm works, but it returns an emtpy list of connections on those machines where it doesn't. debugging with strace showed that nm-system-connections does not look at all into /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections at all. Reading the source code is almost pointless, highly complex without any comments, source code of the quality 'virtually unreadable'. I still could not figure out what makes the difference between those machines where it works and those where it doesn't. Any idea or hint? regards Hadmut _______________________________________________ NetworkManager-list mailing list NetworkManager-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
