Description Brian Ryner 2002-04-14 00:55:19 UTC
Description of Problem:

After configuring my DSL connection using internet-druid, I started neat to
activate the connection (which should really be an option at the end of the
configuration wizard, but that's another bug).  I checked the option to activate
the connection on boot, activated the connection, and on exit received multiple
dialogs of the form:

"May I change /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth[0|1] from mode 600 to
644?"

Worse, even after saying yes to these dialogs, going back into neat to confirm
my settings caused the dialogs to appear again when I exited.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

redhat-config-network-0.9.21-1

How Reproducible:

always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure an internet connection using internet-druid
2. Go into neat to activate the connection
3. Exit neat

Actual Results:

Dialogs appear as previously described.

Expected Results:

No dialogs should appear, because the permissions that these files are created
with (during installation) should match the ones that neat is checking for.

yes-case fixed in current release...  
permissions in anaconda should/can be 0644 again, no more passwords inside
