[Bug 125960] Re: Regular users not allowed to run Configure Network Settings
Joachim Nilsson thank you for working on this bug and making Ubuntu better. Performing a GNOME netapplet bug search via: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/buglist.cgi?query_format=specificorder=relevance+descbug_status=__open__product=netappletcontent= yields no mentioning of this issue. However, a cursory treatment of this bug indicates regular users cannot change network settings as intentional for security purposes. Despite this, the next step is to create and link an upstream bug via: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi and mark this bug's status to New. ** Changed in: netapplet (Ubuntu) Status: Expired = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/125960 Title: Regular users not allowed to run Configure Network Settings -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Sorry, but I guess you'll have to accept that there is s certain level of frustration among reporters when bug reports with working patches are completely ignored.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. I noticed that the package version your bugging is updated in Lucid. Please update via http://releases.ubuntu.com/lucid/ repost a detailed error report, and update the bug status.

[Bug 125960] Re: Regular users not allowed to run Configure Network Settings
First of all, the approach you suggest is rather backwards. Is it really up to me, the reporter and the one providing the patch, to baby sit the patch and make sure it gets applied? Isn't that the responsibility of the package owner in Ubuntu? Anyway, gksu patch still not applied and network-admin is also a command that has been removed in Ubuntu. Also, for most users the nm-applet for NjetworkManager does the trick these days, so I propose you close this issue. -- Regular users not allowed to run Configure Network Settings https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/125960 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

None of my patches to netapplet have been merged. I'm running 9.04 (Jaunty), but Karmic does not have the fixes either. Patches are available from my Bazaar branch at http://bzr.vmlinux.org/netapplet-1.0.8/ ... the web interface viewer for that repository have moved to http://bzr.vmlinux.org/loggerhead//public/netapplet-1.0.8 Thanks. -- Regular users not allowed to run Configure Network Settings https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/125960 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue for you. Can you try with the latest Ubuntu release?
