Three machines with Intrepid here. All of them fresh installs, updated. Each of them has 3 network cards with static IPs. None of them is manageable.
I randomly get any combination of these results when configuring the interfaces with network manager: - the settings are saved, but no connection. - a connection does not work unless I click on NM, then click on EthName - no password prompt at all, no matter what I change - password prompt appears, but it has no effect (no settings get saved) - checking/unchecking "System setting" or "Start automatically" has no effect (they are simply set randomly each time I edit the connection) - a connection finally works (ping IP), but there is no nameserver, even though I have set one - lots of connections can be added - is there a sane reason for this?! - NM ignores the connections with static IPs and tries to connect to an unconfigured interface - there is no NM at all after login There is also a stable result: - ALL the settings are lost on reboot, with no obvious reason A whole IT department in a whole university is going crazy here. Is there something that we are missing? A spell or something? Hardy works perfectly. -- [regression] devices/interfaces not set to "auto" in /etc/network/interfaces get blacklisted in 0.7 (intrepid) but were managed in 0.6 (hardy and before) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/279262 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
