Oh good, so I'm not the only one who can't stand the "new-world-order". Putting everything into the interfaces file breaks all the nice, automatic, "it-just-works" configs I had. Took me almost three days to get things to a semi-functional, "works-with-1-network" state using the interfaces file. Unfortunately, this was a new install of Kubuntu Dapper which does not have any of the deprecated scripts lying around. :( What is it with Linux devs that they have to change everything that works to something that barely works for the next three releases? Why can't they just keep the things that work? wpa_supplicant has been running perfectly on all my FreeBSD systems for almost a year now, and is now broken on all my Linux systems. ---- Freddie Cash, LPCI-1 CCNT CCLP Helpdesk / Network Support Tech.
