and a bunch of posts scattered acorss the mailing lists and bug reports it sounds like wicked is the right way going forward @ opensuse and that dhcpcd and dhclient are going away eventually.
They are still used by NetworkManager (although it now got built in DHCP client as well).
Ok. I'm server-only , so NetworkManager isn't even consideration.
Not sure what makes NM wrong for a server. ...
but saw NO change in YaST2's behavior. Like I mentioned earlier the config's still dumped into compat:-mode's legacy form & location -- as ifcfg-* files in /etc/sysconfig/network.
But reading your comment "you can" is different that "Yast does". I guess that means that if I *do* manually config (looks llike I have to because the Yast tool doesn't) in /etc/wicked/*, then the config should get picked up.
Yes. YaST still edits "legacy" configuration files and wicked has pretty extensive support for them, so I have never seen any real need to mess up with wicked native XML configuration formats. Definitely not in the case when all you want to do is to simply auto configure interface by DHCP. May be one missing piece is to set "on carrier" flag which translates to "use nanny" in wicked. That has to be set up manually and I do not think it is per-interface as before. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
