Connman vs network manager

2014-03-26 Thread Nils Erik Svangård
Hi!
I run unstable and update/upgrade daily.
A couple of weeks apt thougt it best to remove network-manager and replace
it with connman.
This broke my mounting of NFS-shares described in fstab. I have my home and
media cataloge on a NAS.
I have made an update of rc.init as specified in the Howto.Debian file.
Now I have to log in as root and write mounst -a to get it working.
Is this a bug?

It's a missing (integration) feature in connman.
NetworkManager (or specifically NetworkManager-dispatcher [0]) supports
the ifupdown hooks in /etc/network/. One of those hooks [1] is
responsible for mounting NFS shares.
Connman doesn't provide the same level of integration as NetworkManager
does.
