As a a work-around, I am now running 'neat-control' under sudo. 'neat-control' works as expected when run as root. Should general users be able to bring interfaces up/down using neat-control? It's in the menus, so I would guess yes. -jh I'm trying to figure out if there is a better way to fix this than running it through sudo (although sudo is a great way to limit what users can bring interfaces up/down). Setting 'neat-control' to suid-root didn't seem to work ... maybe I should have also set sgid-root? just checkmark "Allow all users to enable/disable the device" or symlink with consolehelper like redhat-config-network is.. |
