At least when I use NetworkManager it does not, I think you may be using the network script and should be to using NetworkManager and NetworkManagerDispatcher scripts. These are init.d scripts. It makes no sense for your wireless to connect on boot since that will prevent you from choosing the correct AP connection to attach to if you move the machine around. -- ======================================================================= Trouble always comes at the wrong time. ======================================================================= Aaron Konstam telephone: (210) 656-0355 e-mail: akonstam@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
