Started YaST-> Network Device-> Network Settings (using NetworkManager method). Saw hostname and domain name greyed out (ie, couldn't be edited), so exited - but pressed 'OK' in error. The hostname settings in these two files then changed to:
/etc/hosts: '127.0.0.2 -f -f' /etc/HOSTNAME: '-f'
Is this still happening with some of the recent betas/RCs? As I failed to reproduce (have NetworkManager, went to YaST's Network Settings, switched to Hostname/DNS tab, pressed OK), /etc/[hosts | HOSTNAME] remained unchanged in my case. If so, please attach y2log ...
Alternatively, if setting is for NetworkManager to control networking, and not YaST, then the default behaviour, even if 'OK' is selected, should be to do nothing. That is, if NetworkManager is in control, ignore YaST unless 'ifup' method is selected.
Yes, that would be a correct solution. But due to some other bugs (namely bug #444967), those settings that are not accesible via NetworkManager GUI must be written by YaST :( -- 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.
