Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-system-tools
In feisty, I tried the new network-manager way of setting up static
network info, since I'm at a client site where I have to enter static
network info. This, of course, brings up network-admin.
I entered everything, and it all seemed to work great. Except that the
gateway here is x.x.x.119 (which I entered) and the gateway configured
was x.x.x.1.
The really fun part is, it put the right info in
/etc/network/interfaces.
To fix this, I disabled networking in NetworkManager, ran ifdown eth0;
ifup eth0 and it worked like a charm.
Hrm.
Now, I did have a DHCP network configured first, so maybe it didn't
clear out the route effectively... I'm not sure.
