I have no found, by removing DHCP Services and configuring a static IP in Network Manager KDE3, that Network Manager will NOT allocat the static IP address. IF, the configuration that was in YAST>IFUP which is inaccessible after changing to Network Manager, contained an IP assignment via DHCP, with or without DHCP Services being offered on the LAN; Network Manager will NOT assign its static IP configuration on Boot. Network Manager will connect to any IP, even without DHCP Services being offered on the LAN, and will appear as a Green Ball - the inference that is still in Yast>Network Devices is still effecting Network Manager. The only was to get Network Manager to establish its static IP is to have the YAST IFUP instance being on static IP before changing to Network Manager. To get Network Manager to obtain its static IP, under the above, is by right click>edit>edit>Next>connect and Save. OR go back to IFUP and remove any inference to DHCP that was present before changing mode to Network Manager. Upgrading Status - If a user just wants a static IP in 11.1 they 1. Must must Network Manager - see open bug on IFUP's inability to do this. 2. remove DHCP Services from offer on the LAN OR totally remove any past incidence of IFUP allocating an IP via DHCP. While we have NFS Services and just about all other network Services that reply on static IP's just to function the above is a nightmare in 11.1 In theory making Yast>Network Devices inaccessible if the user wanted to use Network Manager in V11.1 was good in principle but a functional non tested disaster as the list of have to's started with using KDE3 Network Manager and grew from there. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
