Binary package hint: knetworkconf
% cat /etc/lsb-release
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=7.10
DISTRIB_CODENAME=gutsy
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 7.10"
Package: knetworkconf
Section: kde
Maintainer: Ubuntu Core Developers <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Architecture: i386
Source: kdeadmin
Version: 4:3.5.8-0ubuntu1
If I name my LAN interface the way I want by putting the following line in
/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTRS{address}=="00:10:4b:e3:23:ef", NAME="lan"
and have the following in /etc/network/interfaces:
auto lo lan
iface lan inet static
address 10.0.0.17
netmask 255.255.255.128
network 10.0.0.0
broadcast 10.0.0.127
gateway 10.0.0.1
# dns-* options are implemented by the resolvconf package, if installed
dns-nameservers 10.0.0.1
then ifup and ifdown work perfectly but KNetworkConf can't even find the
lan interface.
If I keep exactly the same configuration, except change the name "lan"
to "eth0", KNetworkConf works.
