Description Michael de Mare 2009-08-01 17:49:25 UTC

I deliberately have NetworkManager uninstalled because it clobbers my configuration files.  I have specifically configured my ethernet interface to start when the system is brought up.  When the system is brought up, it is not started, requiring me to start it manually.  This is a huge problem because if there is a power failure and I need someone to turn my system on so that I can reach it remotely, the network interface does not come up.  The system should be fixed so that the network interface comes up at boot time if that is specified in the configuration.

Thanks for report, but it has nothing to do with basesystem package. I'm not 100% sure where to reassign that bugzilla - but maybe initscripts... let's try...

If it does not come up, you have not specified it in the configuration. If you have removed NM, you need to do:

'chkconfig --level 345 network on'
