From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20030225 Description of problem: Profiles fail miserably on my machine. I had them working quite nicely on redhat 8.0, but now that I am using 9, they complain that they can't find devices after I switch profiles. My setup is basically an ethernet card that has office, dhcp and home settings (eth0, eth0:1, eth0:2) that are each in separate profiles of the same name. Every time I switch profiles and try to start a device, it says to me that it can't find device eth0:1. In order to get it working, I have to edit the device, save all and then start the device. Once this is done, switching back to the old profile results in a similar failure. I also tried to switch profiles from redhat-control-network as a normal user and got the following error dump: Component: redhat-config-network Version: 1.2.0 Summary: TB /usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/rhpl/Conf.py:278:write:IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/etc/sysconfig/network' Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/neat-control", line 256, in on_profileActivateButton_clicked status=self.activate_new_profile(profile) File "/usr/bin/neat-control", line 220, in activate_new_profile profilelist.save() File "/usr/src/build/226257-noarch/install/usr/share/redhat-config-network/netconfpkg/NCProfileList.py", line 255, in save nwconf.write() File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/rhpl/Conf.py", line 278, in write self.file = open(self.filename, 'w', -1) IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/etc/sysconfig/network' Local variables in innermost frame: self: <rhpl.Conf.ConfShellVar instance at 0x8674434> By the way, is there any prospect of having a cancel option added to the window that appears when one tries to start a device, particularly ppp devices? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): redhat-config-network-1.2.0-2 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.add a profile and another eth0 device. 2.save and switch back to the old profile. Try to start the ethernet device in old profile. 3. should fail saying it can't find device. Actual Results: says it can't find device. Expected Results: should start device Additional info:
