Do you have a fairly explicit setup in /etc/network/interfaces, or did the helpful-but-rather-secretive Gnome Network Mangler offer to do everything?

At least it stays out of the way if you have specified a system-wide network setup.On 31 May 2016 12:08 a.m., "El Fontanero" <el.fontanero@gmail.com> wrote:
