[opensuse-support] 15.2A malconfigured network
Normal procedure for my own installations is to configure fixed IP network on eth0 via installation cmdline. It never let me down, until now, with a DHCP assigned IP instead of the one specified in /etc/sysconfig/network/eth0. This has always resulted in dhcp, dhcp-client, NetworkManager not installed, until now. I got network configured with wicked and systemd, but is this the way things are supposed to be now, ignoring installation's network configuration for the installed system? Can the NetworkManager default not do fixed IP ethernet? -- Evolution as taught in public schools is religion, not science. Team OS/2 ** Reg. Linux User #211409 ** a11y rocks!

depending on what level of gui you need nmtui also seems to be able to configure this, although I just configure my router to set static addresses via dhcp in the places I need them, so I haven't actually tried. -- Simon Lees (Simotek) http://simotek.net Emergency Update Team keybase.io/simotek SUSE Linux Adelaide Australia, UTC+10:30 GPG Fingerprint: 5B87 DB9D 88DC F606 E489 CEC5 0922 C246 02F0 014B -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner@opensuse.org

yes, that works also but I have had difficulties with it in the past. fwiw: I had great problems with NM until the last year or so and still find it less reliable than wicked, but much easer to utilize when traveling to connect to various wireless networks. with my experience I would advise against it when *only* using wired connections. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner@opensuse.org
