Well, the levels aren't really used my many maintainers (though maybe they are for RHEL bugs, which 470477 is...). But aside from that, the NM release on Fedora fixes the bug that a missing ONBOOT parameter is treated differently in NM than it was by the network service. I can't see how having ONBOOT=no and NM not starting that device could be construed as an NM bug though. It's perhaps a bug if some tool is automatically writing the ONBOOT=no into the ifcfg file when it shouldn't be. In any case, I'm glad you found the solution. :) -- Todd OpenPGP -> KeyID: 0xBEAF0CE3 | URL: www.pobox.com/~tmz/pgp ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Problems are opportunity in work clothes.
