Title:
Cannot set default Location in Network Settings - Domain Name does not
persist after reboot
Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Ubuntu version: 8.04
Using the Network Settings tool, if the user changes the domain name
and reboots the OS, the domain name is blank.
Steps to reproduce:
- Navigate to: System -> Administration -> Network
- Click on the Unlock button and enter your user's password when prompted
- Navigate to the General tab and enter a domain name under: Host Settings
-> Domain name
- Using the tool, save to a Location and click on the "tick" button to make
it currently usable
- Reboot the OS and navigate to the Network Settings tool again
After the previous steps, you will notice that the previously set
domain name has disappeared. This appears to be because even though
the user has set a Location, there is no way of setting a default
Location in the tool.
This bug should be addressed as the only workaround seems to be selecting a
Location every time the user reboots the OS. Considering that this is present
in the current LTS release 8.04, where the OS is marketed as an
enterprise/corporate OS, this should not be deemed as an acceptable action that
every user must perform every time they log on.
If this is an upstream bug, please indicate this and what steps must happen
for this issue to be addressed.
