Konqueror is the one that just shows 'false'. If I use KWrite to open the file, it has content similar to the example in comment 6 from Mr. Tomaschewski except instead of-- <use-nanny>true</use-nanny> I have <use-nanny>false</use-nanny> Also, I have no /etc/wicked/local.xml I tried using the 'old /etc/wicked/common.xml ;' command, but the new common.xml file still says it was created Oct 14.
