Description Pierre Habouzit 2006-05-13 00:36:36 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.0)

From debian bug http://bugs.debian.org/348137
===================================================================================
Package: knetworkconf
Version: 4:3.5.0-4
Severity: important

I have three NICs on my mainboard and do use only one - so I told knetworkconf to leave it deactivated. Alas, my /etc/network/interfaces reads like this now:

---------- /etc/network/interfaces -------------
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).

# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
address 127.0.0.1
netmask 255.0.0.0

# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

iface eth2 inet

iface eth1 inet
------------------------------------------------

When issueing '/etc/init.d/networking start", the system complains about "too few parameters on line 14" and fails to bring up the entire networking.

Using Testing with additional unstable and experimental packages, Kernel 2.6.15, on an Asus A7V8X-E motherboard (Nforce2 chipset)

Pls let me know if you need more info to track this down.


        Best regards,


                        Friedemann

The "knetworkconf" module is unmaintained, and has been replaced with the networkmanagement plasmoid.

If this issue still needs to be addressed with a recent version of this plasmoid, please add a comment, or file a new report for product "Network Management".
