Re: [DNG] netman, ifdown: interface wlan0 not configured

It works with frontend or backend. I forgot the SUID when I copied it to /usr/bin/netman/. My interfaces looks almost like yours, but I don't have a line for the wireless, and there's a line for interfaces.d. This is what I got with the alpha2 netinstall. The only change I made was to comment out t

Hi fsmithred, I think, Disconnect was failing in your case with the default configuration of netman's /etc/network/wifi/* files, for the reason, that I assumed that ifdown would automatically find where the currently used interfaces file was located. Since ifup worked the way netman invoked it, I
