Review of syslog results
The only atypical entry seems to be where the connection is made and the send_accm is and recv_accm is . The next line gives a Non-Zero ACCM are not supported. So is it the that it doesn't like? Or is it the - which appears to all zeros to me. This is followed by both send and recv accm values being which is followed again by the Non-Zero error. The next line says LCP terminated by peer (ie. the windows server cuts the connection (?) and then the nm vpn reacts to the closed connection by shutting down and delivering the failed error message. Baffling for us GUI-habituated, ex-Gatesians. ___ NetworkManager-list mailing list NetworkManager-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list

Networkmanager inserting 'stray' DNS server in /etc/resolv.conf
Hi... My environment: Kernel: 2.6.24-21-386 on Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy) HW: Compaq nc6220 NM: 0.6.6-0ubuntu5 At home, I have wireless configured to get DNS from opendns.org (207.67.222.222). I never use wired connections at home. When I vpn into work, the vpn software I use alters /etc/resolv.conf to put the work dns servers in front of the home dns servers. At the office, I exclusively used wired connections and despite that I find that nm will insert a DNS reference to the 'home' DNS server first. Since I am behind a firewall, this ensures that every DNS request I make first fails, and has to drop back to the internal DNS servers. I can't figure out where NM is getting this value. I routinely hack it out, but a restart of NM puts is back. Is there a way to correct this or is this an artifact of this version of NM?

Hostname set to localhost.localdomain at reboot
Hello there! I hear this is a common problem and I hear that you think it's been fixed. However, it most certainly has not. My computer is a Dell Vostro 1500 running Ubuntu Intrepid with the latest updates as of today (11/20). My networkmanager package version is 0.7~~svn20081018t105859-0ubuntu1, as reported by aptitude. So I start my computer up normally. The /etc/init.d/hostname script runs and sets my hostname to northbound, like it should be. Then, NetworkManager runs and changes it to localhost.localdomain. Boo. Here's an example session that I set up to show you just what I mean: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ hostname northbound [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/NetworkManager restart * Stopping NetworkManager... [ OK ] * Starting NetworkManager... [ OK ] [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ hostname northbound # About 5-10 seconds later: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ hostname localhost.localdomain # About 15 minutes later in a separate shell when NM's connected to my network: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ hostname northbound.uccs.edu [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ aptitude show network-manager | grep -i version Version: 0.7~~svn20081018t105859-0ubuntu1 Does anyone know how to help?

Here's an example session that I set up to show you just what I mean: NetworkManager will only change it to localhost.localdomain if it cannot get the persistent hostname that you've specified in /etc/hostname. When nm-system-settings starts up, it should be loading the ifupdown plugin, which will read /etc/hostname and provide that hostname to NetworkManager. NetworkManager will then use that hostname _exclusively_. So the fact that it's getting set to localhost.localdomain means one of a few things: 1) nm-system-settings + ifupdown isn't able to read the persistent hostname from /etc/hostname 2) NM isn't able to get the persistent hostname from nm-system-settings (which is done using dbus) and can be verified with the following command: dbus-send --print-reply --system --dest=org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerSystemSettings /org/freedesktop/NetworkManagerSettings org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties.GetAll string:org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerSettings.System 3) NM isn't able to set the hostname for some reason 4) NM isn't able to update /etc/hosts with your new hostname Are there any errors printed out in /var/log/daemon.log after NM sets the IP address? They would reference 'hostname' if there are any. Dan [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ hostname northbound [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/NetworkManager restart * Stopping NetworkManager...

how to configure tap0/br0 correctly
Hi there, I am on Ubuntu 8.10, upgraded from previous release mainly to get the shiny new Network Manager 0.7 that was supposed to honor the /etc/network/interfaces settings. I need to get tap0 bridged with eth0 so I have the following entries in the 'interfaces' file: == auto eth0 iface eth0 inet manual up ifconfig $IFACE 0.0.0.0 up down ifconfig $IFACE down auto tap0 iface tap0 inet manual up ifconfig $IFACE 0.0.0.0 up down ifconfig $IFACE down tunctl_user username auto br0 iface br0 inet dhcp bridge_ports eth0 tap0 == The goal is obviously to let the br0 replace the eth0 for all my outgoing networking, including VPN connections etc. Now I'd swear it worked perfectly for a couple of days but it stopped working suddenly today and I am unable to get it working again. The nm-applet does not appear until I restart the NM daemon and then the nm-applet indicates that I have everything managed by the /etc/network/interfaces so it will not allow me to launch VPN connection on it. I have read so many open bug reports in Ubuntu about their NM that I decided I need to ask here for the right solution: how to set the br0 so that NM will accept it and the nm-applet will allow me running VPN over it... When I tried removing the eth0 from /etc/network/interfaces to let NM manage it the routing got messed up because both eth0 and br0 got their address from DHCP. Right now I have the default Ubuntu setting in nm-system-settings.conf, that is [ifupdown] managed=false. I have tried enabling it but things didn't look better so I restored the original setting. Thanks for any advice. I am sure all Debian/Ubuntu/similar users of VirtualBox and other emulators that use the tap interfaces would be more than happy to know the right setting compatible with NM.

v6 only networks broken?
hi, I am not sure if someelse else at IETF already raised this, but NM does not work on IPv6 only networks. After association on the wifi, it disassociates with could not obtain an address. We suspect because it did not get an ipv4 ip address via dhcp, though we did get an ipv6 address.
