This may be a situation where the solution is "Don't use
networkmanager", but I wanted to get your learned input before I went
down that route...
I was running Hardy on my previous desktop machine, using both a
wireless card and a wired connection at the same time. This was my
interfaces file:
# /etc/network/interfaces -- configuration file for ifup(8), ifdown(8)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.1
network 192.168.1.0
netmask 255.255.255.240
broadcast 192.168.1.15
gateway 192.168.1.16
auto eth0
iface ath0 inet dhcp
wpa-driver madwifi
wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
auto ath0
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The wired connection was used for a few local addresses (192.168.1.0 -
192.168.1.15) - other machines, a network-enabled printer, etc. - and
the wireless port for everything else.
Now, I have a new desktop, with Jaunty installed... and networkmanager.
Is this configuration too far outside of nm's comfort zone, or is there
a way I can configure things such that networkmanager will be compatible
with my situation? I am ready, willing, and able to make code
modifications if needed.
