I'm not sure how I've shown that I don't care, but NM faithfully has been updating yp configuration from DHCP for a long time.
Yes, but ypbind is started before NM enables the network.
How is NM incompatible with unix protocols?
Using NM, the domainname (not the DNS one) can be changed with every activation of the network. Traditional UNIX protocols only allow to set the domainname once during booting before this applications are started, and it is not allowed to change the name later. This requirements are not fullfillable with the NetworkManager design.
What does it matter how an interface is activated, through a shell script or from a daemon?
It does not matter how the interface is activated, but when it is. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
