If I try to configure the interface by clicking the 'Configure' button in gnome-nettool, I see the following error message on standard error:
CRITICAL **: Unable to lookup session information for process '#####' It seems gnome-nettool is calling network-admin with superuser privileges, which no longer works. For example, 'sudo network-admin' will start disabled and you'll see the same security error on standard error. If this is by design, I fail to see the reason. The superuser should be able to configure network interfaces with or without the GUI. -- network-admin error: The interface does not exist https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/184711 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
