[Bug 283233] Re: network manager won't save fixed ip settings on wired connections

2008-10-16 Thread milasch
yes, it is still happening Here is what I did:

Created a new connection, gave the manual ipv4 settings, and clicked ok;
A new connection was then available for me to select when right clicking the 
system tray network-manager icon. The settings didn't work right away;
I tried deleting auto eth0, and then yes, the settings of the new connection 
took effect.
I tried then to reboot the computer, and found out the settings went back to 
its prior state, with the DHCP mode.
Then I right clicked the system tray icon to find there was no option to change 
the settings to my new created connection, I mean, it wasn't showing there, 
although when I go to Edit Connections, it is shown there.
One thing I noticed, auto eth0 connection came back, and if I change it to 
manual ipv4 settings and rename it, it doesn't take effect. It also states in 
the auto eth0 connection a "never" on the second column, and I believe that it 
means it has never been used. My new created connection states "3 minutes ago" 
and will take effect only if I delete auto eth0 (since there is no way of 
changing it to the current connection to be used).

But if I reboot, auto eth0 will come back again.

[Bug 283233] [NEW] network manager won't save fixed ip settings on wired connections

2008-10-14 Thread milasch
Public bug reported:

Trying to set a static IP address on Intrepid Ibex Beta's out of the box
network manager (version 0.70), and I do the following:

Right click on the task bar's icon, select "Edit Connections", On wired
tab I click on the only interface shown (auto eth0), then click on Edit,
select  IPV4 settings, change the method to manual,  write my own
settings, for IP/Mask/Gateway and finally DNS, click OK, but nothing
changes when I do ifconfig. If I reboot the settings I've inserted there
will not show.
