Public bug reported:
Release: kubuntu intrepid beta
I have a dhcp network with a range set up. If I leave it to work like that,
everything is fine. However, for security reasons, everyone that gets an IP
from dhcp doesn't have internet access per dhcp server config.
My workstation is not supposed to get the ip from dhcp. I am putting in
a manual config for this purpose, but knetworkmanager would not set it
up. Even after I declared my network manually, I see it in the menu, but
clicking it doesn't do anything, and my IP address remains on the one
set by the DHCP server.
I used to have problems doing this even on hardy, but managed to solve
it by editing /etc/network/interfaces manually. This workaround doesn't
work anymore, as the address gets reassigned anyway by networkmanager,
so I had to disable the service entirely.
