Public bug reported: Binary package hint: ifupdown
There are a lot of people seeking help, because they followed some old "how to" and their network interfaces became unmanaged. A warning at the top of /etc/network/interfaces could help this situation. Example of such a "how to": https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ADSLPPPoE (following this will turn off DHCP on eth0 and make it unmanaged) ** Affects: ifupdown (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Add a warning to the interfaces file that interfaces present in this file won't be managed by network-manager https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/381586 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
