NetworkManager needs a connection to activate it. You should have ifcfg-eth0 file (it is created by installer initially). Moreover, in order to start connection automatically, ONBOOT=yes has to present there. Otherwise the connection is not started automatically, but you can activate it manually via 'ifup eth0'. Hi Jirka, Thanks for the reply. There was no ifcfg-eth0 file -- I had to manually create it. I use a standard live-CD install of F14 (x86_64). If the file is missing from a standard install, then it is a problem. I will check my other F14 systems to see if they are missing the file as well. Thanks, Erik Hi again, I just verified on my office laptop, which has a recent install of F14: there is no ifcfg-eth0 file. The /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices dir is empty. This means the user has to manually create the file if it is needed. Somehow there is a disconnect between the files the Network Manager assumes are available and what the installer creates. Thanks, Erik This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '14' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping |
