Perhaps it's time to look over the logs, or poke through /etc/rc?.d/ and /etc/init.d to see if anything has gone astray. Again, my experience of Network Manager, whatever its foibles, has at least stayed out of the way of whatever I had set up in network/interfaces.
This is why the truly paranoid just set up /etc/ as a git repository... This is also what you get when systems have uptimes reaching hundreds of days, as opposed to needing to reboot every hour or two. Cheers, Mike --- Talk Mailing List [email protected] https://gtalug.org/mailman/listinfo/talk
