I ifdown'ed eth0 and stopped network-manager, then removed that file, then started both again. The file exists again, and I have two dhclients as before. Is that a regression from 0.9.4? No. I observed this behavior in 0.9.4.0-10 and upgraded to see if it's been fixed. -- Antti-Juhani Kaijanaho -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

found 707070 0.9.4.0-10 thanks Am 07.05.2013 16:34, schrieb Antti-Juhani Kaijanaho: On Tue, May 07, 2013 at 04:08:23PM +0200, Michael Biebl wrote: What does sudo grep 'type=802-3-ethernet' /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/* say? ajk@teralehti:~$ sudo grep 'type=802-3-ethernet' /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/* /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/Automaattinen, kiinteä:type=802-3-ethernet ^^ Could you translate that for me? If it returns any hits, does it help if you remove those files? I ifdown'ed eth0 and stopped network-manager, then removed that file, then started both again. The file exists again, and I have two dhclients as before. Hm, that is strange. We probably have to start investigate, why NM adds that connection file. Is that a regression from 0.9.4? No. I observed this behavior in 0.9.4.0-10 and upgraded to see if it's been fixed. Ok, marking it as found in earlier version.

So, the issue here seems to be, that you are changing the mac address of the interface, and the ifupdown plugin doesn't listen to mac address changes and updates the unmanaged specs for that. As a workaround for now, Dan suggests the following: For now the user can put the changed MAC into /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf in the unmanaged-devices=mac:hwaddr in the [keyfile] section too and in 0.9.10 ifupdown should probably get converted to use interface-name:eth0 instead Cheers, Michael -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
