Hi Aitor, Sender is the originating object sending initiating the event. For example, let us consider Button: TButton. The latter's OnClick event can be used to call method:
ButtonOnClick(Sender: TObject); Sender points at Button. So, inside the event handler, the cast TButton(Sender) can be used to operate directly on the calling object. However, Sender need not be used and it is normal practice in Lazarus/Delphi code not to use it. Regarding the following exeption, this is caused because "/usr/lib/netman/bin/backend " was not found and the exception was forwarded to the TApplication object. TApplication.HandleException Executable not found: "/usr/lib/netman/bin/backend " I think, the error is simply an extra space at the end of: backend=/usr/lib/netman/bin/backend Edit the file /etc/netman.conf and see what happens. If you are not using /etc/netman.conf, something else is causing the error, but I doubt this is what is happening. Also, as a test, try to remove the --auto-conn parameter and check whether netman loads. If it loads, it would corroborate my conclusion that the cause is an extra space at the end of the line mentioned above.
