Description Frank Sweetser 2001-07-31 18:20:42 UTC
The new neat package seems to create symlinks out of
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ to the suitable profile directory. 
However, usernetctl sees that the ifcfg-* files are symlinks, and refuses
to manage interfaces even though USRCTL=yes is set.

Comment 1 Glen Foster 2001-07-31 19:25:34 UTC
This defect is considered MUST-FIX for Fairfax.

Comment 2 Bill Nottingham 2001-08-08 22:21:18 UTC
Current neat (i.e., 0.7-1) should not create symlinks, but hardlinks.
