Hello,
I had a request a few weeks back about how to get the system settings
daemon to ignore all cards without hardcoding MAC addresses into the
nm-system-settings.conf file. It was mentioned that there's a workaround
for RedHat-based systems. I wanted something more explicit.
The attached trivial patch lets the user specify "no-auto-default=*" to
have all of the connections blacklisted by the system settings daemon.
--Pat
Allows for the "*" character as a setting for no-auto-default, to ensure that
no devices are managed by NetworkManager's system settings, rather than
listing individual MAC addresses.
