Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): $ rpm -q NetworkManager NetworkManager-0.8.4-1.fc14.i686 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info: After attempting this, reverting to dhcp method didn't restore my connection. It was restored after reboot, though.
What do you want to achieve? When you create (and activate) a shared connection on a computer, the interface gets assigned 10.42.43.1 and dnsmasq is run to serve as DHCP server for clients connecting to this hotspot.
I want to connect a wired network (or a single wired computer) to the internet through my notebook. The connection between my netbook and the computer or network, is wired.
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 It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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
