I use Red Hat Enterprise Linux version 5.3, 32bit on an IBM Thinkpad T60. I also make use of the ipw3945 driver.
eth1 is the assigned wireless interface. These are the versions of NetworkManager that come with RHEL5.3 32bit: NetworkManager-0.7.0-3.el5 NetworkManager-gnome-0.7.0-3.el5 NetworkManager-glib-devel-0.7.0-3.el5 NetworkManager-devel-0.7.0-3.el5 NetworkManager-glib-0.7.0-3.el5 I am not able to connect to my access point. The Network Manager icon in gnome will appear, show the connection anamation, then when I enter my passphrase, it will connect, then the entire anamation / icon in the information panel will disappear. This is what tail -f /var/log/messages gives me, during the sequence: <LOG SNIPPET> Mar 19 10:31:45 deathstar NetworkManager: <info> (eth1): deactivating device (reason: 38). Mar 19 10:31:45 deathstar avahi-daemon[4048]: New relevant interface eth1.IPv6 for mDNS. Mar 19 10:31:45 deathstar avahi-daemon[4048]: Joining mDNS multicast group on interface eth1.IPv6 with address fe80::219:d2ff:fe0a:a0e7. Mar 19 10:31:45 deathstar avahi-daemon[4048]: Registering new address record for fe80::219:d2ff:fe0a:a0e7 on eth1. Mar 19 10:31:45 deathstar NetworkManager: <info> eth1: canceled DHCP transaction, dhcp client pid 8984 *Mar 19 10:31:45 deathstar NetworkManager: <WARN> check_one_route(): (eth1) error -22 returned from rtnl_route_del(): Missing link name TLV (errno = Invalid argument) * Mar 19 10:31:45 deathstar avahi-daemon[4048]: Withdrawing address record for 10.0.1.2 on eth1. Mar 19 10:31:45 deathstar avahi-daemon[4048]: Leaving mDNS multicast group on interface eth1.IPv4 with address 10.0.1.2. Mar 19 10:31:45 deathstar avahi-daemon[4048]: iface.c: interface_mdns_mcast_join() called but no local address available. Mar 19 10:31:45 deathstar avahi-daemon[4048]: Interface eth1.IPv4 no longer relevant for mDNS. </LOG SNIPPET> When that <WARN> statement appears, the icon immediately disappears. I have never seen this error before. It is very strange. I have tried reinstalling all of the rpms, but it makes no difference. I am open to any suggestions at this point. Please let me know if any other information is needed, I will do my best to provide it. -- Miller
