-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2009-2420 2009-03-08 06:09:08 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : NetworkManager Product : Fedora 9 Version : 0.7.0.99 Release : 1.fc9 URL : http://www.gnome.org/projects/NetworkManager/ Summary : Network connection manager and user applications Description : NetworkManager attempts to keep an active network connection available at all times. It is intended only for the desktop use-case, and is not intended for usage on servers. The point of NetworkManager is to make networking configuration and setup as painless and automatic as possible. If using DHCP, NetworkManager is _intended_ to replace default routes, obtain IP addresses from a DHCP server, and change nameservers whenever it sees fit. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Wed Mar 4 2009 Dan Williams <[email protected]> -
