Hi,
The move from wicked to NetworkManager as default for everything during the last months revealed some (welcomed) side effects: since several weeks sysconfig-netconfig is no longer installed on a fresh default installation.
Hello Thorsten,
sorry I can't read the whole mail at the moment. But an answer would be important to me. But is there a possibility to prevent a manual change? So that only root can enter and change the network configuration. Is it possible to set a fixed IP and network configuration that cannot be changed?
NetworkManager is polkit driven, so who can do what depends on how you configure it. Normally, normal users are not allowed to change network interfaces beside wlan.
Do you have a description or links?
I have nothing to do with NetworkManager, but I'm sure there is documentation about how NetworkManager is working, as everybody is using that today.
