You can't do that :-( If you need a bridge (like I do), AFAIK the only two solutions are: - uninstall network manager and return to using /etc/network/interfaces - add the missing code to network manager I have tried various ways of "persuading" NM that it wants to control my bridged interface instead of the physical one, and it really won't play ball. I had wanted to try and keep NM on my laptop because it does wireless better than my previous home-grown solutions. But I've had to unmanage my wired NIC and now NM tries really hard to bring up the wireless interface each time someone logs in. Oh well. I suppose I should be glad I'm not alone. But it doesn't really help you, does it. Chris -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
