Network-manager is a daemon that will re-enable a network connection when it detects that it goes down. It also allows one to change connections on the fly through interfaces such as KNetworkManager. However, it can only handle one network connection at a time, thus on a gateway machine that has 2 nics, it must be removed. Historically it has also brought down network connections that were working fine, therefore inherited the pun, network mangler. > > >>> What when you stop it Ben? >>> sudo /etc/dbus-1/event.d/26NetworkManagerDispatcher stop >>> sudo /etc/dbus-1/event.d/25NetworkManager stop >>>> Doug. >> >>> bye Thilo >> i am on Ubuntu 2.6 KDE >> - some friend of mine >> >> What is this supposed to mean? > > Ubuntu 2.6 KDE > is like a smart way of saying Ubuntu GNU/Linux > 2.6 refers to linux kernel and kde is obviously not ubuntu > > although when it was "created" it was a mistake by a newcomer > i like the "deeper" meaning behind it Ubuntu has never been anything but 2.6. Wouldn't 2.6.17 Kubuntu be more accurate, but then again, you could just say (K)ubuntu Dapper or Edgy and be done with it.
