Package: network-manager Version: 0.7.1-2 Severity: normal My system is setup as follows: - an ethernet interface configured via DHCP connects up to the internet. Udev is setup to name this interface `eth-down'. This interface is taken up/down by ifplugd. - a USB plug to which I sometimes connect a device through an ethernet adapter. Udev is setup to name this interface `eth-usb'. this interface is taken up/down via "allow-hotplug".
All the networking is setup via /etc/network/interfaces (shown below). network-manager is installed and running (because of gnome) but has never been touched (i.e. default config) and no user is running nm-applet. As long as I don't plug in my eth-usb device, all works fine. As long as network-manager is not running, everything works fine. But starting from the following routing state: # route Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 132.204.24.0 * 255.255.252.0 U 0 0 0 eth-down default sud-ouest.iro.u 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth-down # if network-manager is running and I plug my eth-usb device, I the device gets configured correctly by ifupdown's hotplug support, but the default route gets messed up: # route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 192.168.0.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 1 0 0 eth-usb 132.204.24.0 * 255.255.252.0 U 0 0 0 eth-down default 192.168.0.200 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth-usb # Stefan ##### /etc/network/interfaces ############################################# auto lo iface lo inet loopback iface eth-down inet dhcp allow-hotplug eth-usb iface eth-usb inet static address 192.168.0.200 netmask 255.255.255.0 up iptables -A POSTROUTING -t nat -j MASQUERADE -s 192.168.0.0/24 & up echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward & up iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT & down iptables -D POSTROUTING -t nat -j MASQUERADE -s 192.168.0.0/24 & ########################################################################### -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_CH.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_CH.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages network-manager depends on: ii adduser 3.110 add and remove users and groups ii dbus 1.2.16-2 simple interprocess messaging syst ii dhcp3-client 3.1.2p1-1 DHCP client ii hal 0.5.13-3 Hardware Abstraction Layer ii ifupdown 0.6.9 high level tools to configure netw ii libc6 2.9-25 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libdbus-1-3 1.2.16-2 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.82-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libgcrypt11 1.4.4-4 LGPL Crypto library - runtime libr ii libglib2.0-0 2.22.0-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgnutls26 2.8.3-3 the GNU TLS library - runtime libr ii libgpg-error0 1.6-1 library for common error values an ii libhal1 0.5.13-3 Hardware Abstraction Layer - share ii libnl1 1.1-5 library for dealing with netlink s ii libnm-glib0 0.7.1-2 network management framework (GLib ii libnm-util1 0.7.1-2 network management framework (shar ii libpolkit-dbus2 0.9-4 library for accessing PolicyKit vi ii libpolkit2 0.9-4 library for accessing PolicyKit ii libtasn1-3 2.3-1 Manage ASN.1 structures (runtime) ii libudev0 0.141-2 libudev shared library ii libuuid1 2.16.1-3 Universally Unique ID library ii lsb-base 3.2-23 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ii wpasupplicant 0.6.9-3 client support for WPA and WPA2 (I ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-15 compression library - runtime Versions of packages network-manager recommends: pn dnsmasq-base <none> (no description available) ii iptables 1.4.4-2 administration tools for packet fi ii network-manager-gnome 0.7.1-1 network management framework (GNOM ii policykit 0.9-4 framework for managing administrat ii ppp 2.4.4rel-10.1 Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) - da Versions of packages network-manager suggests: pn avahi-autoipd <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
