Its command line interface is limited; according to Debian's wiki page, you can't configure a static IP address with it (this might have changed); I know people who've inadvertently lost connectivity to remote systems by changing configuration files that network-manager was watching. Of course, if you're aware of this behaviour you can avoid the problem by ensuring that it isn't running when you edit network-related configuration files. _______________________________________________ luv-main mailing list [email protected] http://lists.luv.asn.au/listinfo/luv-main
