Re: Static Ip Address (newb question)

I tried it out, but when I attempted to assign a static IP address, it would hold it for approx 1 minute, then assign a different IP address (last byte different). Can you help me find out where it's getting that last byte from? My netmask is 255.255.255.192, i try to assign XXX.XXX.XXX.185 and it insisted on assigning XXX.XXX.XXX.170. Now I've uninstalled networkmanager and am having to manage the switch between wired and wireless manually. Thanks for your help David David, at this time NetworkManager does not support static IP addresses. This feature is planned for the next major release. If this is connected to a SOHO router you can probably assign a reservation on the router so it always gets the same address from DHCP. ___ NetworkManager-list mailing list NetworkManager-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list

There was talk a little while back about someone setting up a wiki where we could submit our findings, but it never seemed to develop. I'm sure if someone can create a wiki for the information to be stored others will contribute, I know I would. Pretty much anyone can get a user on the live.gnome.org wiki and just start adding stuff...

Re: DHCP, VPN and resolv.conf

I connect with vpn, but after a while, the dns settings from vpn are overwritten with the dns settings from the wireless network. The DNS should not change while the vpn is connected, even if dhcp renews it's lease. Make sense? Should I file a bug somewhere? Can you get output from NM? It goes to wherever syslog will put it. The DNS settings shouldn't change unless NM thinks that the VPN connection has dropped. Also, I think debian uses resolvconf, and something else may be poking resolvconf to overwrite the VPN settings. NM logs would help determine whether it's NM rewriting /etc/resolv.conf, or whether something else is the culprit through resolvconf.
