So either else is wrong on your end (user error, or a specific bug). I have my router set to give IPs, and recently, I also enabled binding of IPs to MAC addresses. But I already had my desktop on a static IP. So one think I we need to clarify, is this with or without the device set as to be managed by NetworkManager (configurable in system-config-network). I can't be sure of my own setting as I recently had a troublesome NM problem myself, so my current settings aren't t be trusted. > Yeah, I know, I should get my MAC tied to an IP, but if you can get > network support to do anything other than say "have you tried > rebooting?" then you're a better man than I am.

Either way, this is a valid use case (if it really doesn't work). -- Fedora 9 : sulphur is good for the skin ( www.pembo13.com ) -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
