Same problems as above hit me today after an update on my Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS machine. After applying updates, networking ceased to function.
Downgraded libnl* and now networking is working again. Luckily I was able to do the downgrade by first using recovery options at boot from GRuB. From there I enabled networking, and then I resumed booting. Networking lasted long enough to do the downgrade (per instructions above), followed by a reboot of the system. All is working now, and I am waiting for the coming network-manager update to fix the problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1511735 Title: libnl: fail to bind() netlink sockets To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libnl3/+bug/1511735/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
