Yes, that changed. >> nmcli connection show is now what >> nmcli connection show configured used to be. and >> nmcli connection show --active was >> nmcli connection show active I understand that this change breaks your scripts and it's a major annoyance. For what it's worth, non breaking compatibility is very important to us -- usually. In this case we changed it because this syntax makes more sense and you only find the old syntax in Fedora20. There was never a stable release with the old behavior and to my knowledge no other distribution got it. sed 's/nmcli connection show configured/nmcli connection show/g' sed 's/nmcli connection show active/nmcli connection show --active/g' Thomas
