If this is the cause do you have any idea how to get back to a
"completely controlled by Network Manager" situation?
In /etc/network/interfaces, comment out all the stanzas except the first
one for the loopback adapter.
If nothing else has been changed, Network Manager should then take over.
But for my purposes I also needed this work-around for one bit of bad
behavior by a dnsmasq TFTP server: In /etc/dnsmasq.d/network-manager
replace the "bind-interfaces" line with a "bind-dynamic" line. You may
not need this.
Thanks, it now works, but there is one gotcha:
It only works (as in nm-tool works for a non-root user) if that user has
logged in to a live X desktop on the system, if there's no live login
then I get an error message. Logging in via a remote desktop (such as
xrdp) doesn't work, it seems only to work with a local screen login.
I log in locally and via Linux Terminal Server. I have zero experience
with rdp, xrdp, etc. Maybe someone else here can help with that.
