You can only decide if the network device is turned on at boot time or not. When you enable a boottime activation, every profile can use it. To allow or disallow a user to turn the device on or off, you have to disable the boot time activation. These are - as I see it - the options you have. So your observation seems to correct: > Also, as I said, I have to restart the network now whenever I reboot, > even though I stated that I wanted the Common profile to be activated > when booting. > (My suspicion is that the ifcfg_eth0 file is copied > to /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts > after the point where the device would be activated. > But that is only an uneducated guess.) Do you have "ONBOOT=yes"? But if you can only guess, we all have just the crystal ball. Could you post your config(s)? > People have suggested I contact the Fedora-test list, Hence you are running FC3t1 (as I remember), yes. I e.g. can only provide infos about FC2. I do not have a test machine. If nothing has changed, then these infos might apply. -- Regards Markus
