Nothing untoward here. This is the expected output of ifconfig if there is a network cable to each NIC. You now have two active interfaces. Is that what you want? I for one am getting lost. You don't appear to have any problem connecting to the network, although there may some minor details which require clarification. Please would would specify precisely what it is you require help with. > Note in the /var/log/boot file that something called `NetworkManager' > is setting up the connections.

Having both NetworkManager and ifupdown managing interfaces is not my idea of an ideal setup. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
