Sorry - you go to Yast->Network devices - then edit the address assignment mode for the individual device(s). Usually you will have static, dhcpv4, dhcpv6 and 4+6. (all from memory, ymmv). Thanks for this but the water is too cold and too deep so I'll stay in the boat where it is safe :-) . You can "stay in the boat" where you may *never* reach shore, but the described action does work as I have been using it for several years on my server machine(s), which are still on 11.2.
That's nice.... for you :-) . But when one has never touched anything-networking telling one to "edit address assignment mode...." goes totally over the head.
Now, if someone posts a screenshot of YaST where such a change was done then one can start to understand what "address assignment mode....." means and where it is configured :-) .
I'd be happy to, but I only use the ncurses interface, and I expect you use the GUI? -- Per Jessen, Zürich (16.2°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - free DNS hosting, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
