Okay, I have internet trouble. On both my desktop and my laptop, I can connect, to my home wi-fi, but not to any other wi-fi point, including tethering to my phone.

I suspect this has been an issue since I switched to @[email protected] but I haven't confirmed it until today.

I have NetworkManager installed and launching automatically on boot. In Plasma's tray, I can see the wi-fi icon. I can see many wi-fi networks available to connect to. I can connect to them. But if I connect to any wi-fi network except my home router, I am told I am connected and that the data rate is 0 bytes/s download and 0 bytes/s upload.

Restarting NetworkManager makes no difference, nor does rebooting.

sudo sv status NetworkManager
run: NetworkManager: (pid 817) 21678s; run: log: (pid 815) 21678s

Now my wife wants me to put the physical recycling out :(

Lately I've seen a bunch of people struggeling with

libvirt QEMU/KVM setups where they want to bridge the VMs tdirectly to their LAN.

As I was re-installing my aarch64 host for test VMs on Chimera Linux the other day I figured I'll do a quick write up.

Chimera's libvirt comes with Modular driver daemons.

If your distribution runs the Monolithic driver daemon and or uses systemd or an other init system then dinit pleasue consult their documentation for that part of the installation.

The Bridge config part works on any distribution that uses NetworkManager.

If you don't use #NetworkManager on Linux and rather use #iwd or #wpa_supplicant. How do you handle wired networks with or without dhcp? Do you have helper scripts for that or a GUI?

#networking

@whiteline Sure. I love a simple chat protocol. It's also nice to know that I could easily implement my own IRC client.

It's probably a good chat protocol for things like gaming or so where you don't really care about missing messages.

The thing it's not a good protocol for is for international teams where I may just want to enter a chat to ask a quick question, go about my day and come back later to see if someone responded.

The irc of #NetworkManager even has this message as MOTD " Please be patient after asking a question, we might not be in your time zone."

So now you're expecting casual users to use something like a bouncer and figure out if their server supports SASL or TLS client certificates for authentication. Just for them to be able to meaningfully contribute to your project.

This is the thing I am criticizing.

@kaliwolf
Well I did not "move over" as one can't remove #NetPlan on #Ubuntu or #Kubuntu becasue of package dependencies etc...
but one can disable it more or less & let #NetworkManager take over.
What kills me about NetPlan is that it's more or less incomplete as it is missing so much, good thing it is only found on Ubuntu.
I've been getting into Bonding & 802.3ad/LACP https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Link_aggregation
#LinkAggregation

So what were you trying to do that NetPlan got in the way for you?

I've used Linux for a long time
but I've never seen the maddest that is #NetPlan
I do an #Ethernet bond(2 Nic's bonding as 1) on my Main-PC
I wanted to change the Transmit Hash Policy in my bond via .nmconnection file for NM but NetPlan got in the way on my #Kubuntu
I really know #NetworkManager but NetPlan is missing options I needed etc... So I made changes & got Network Manager to take over but it took me Hrs of playing with it. Now I know why people hate NetPlan

I've used Linux for a long time
but I've never seen the maddest that is #NetPlan
I do an #Ethernet bond(2 Nic's bonding as 1) on my Main-PC
I wanted to change the Transmit Hash Policy in my bond via .nmconnection file for NM but NetPlan got in the way on my #Kubuntu
I really know #NetworkManager but NetPlan is missing options I needed etc... So I made changes & got Network Manager to take over but it took me Hrs of playing with it. Now I know why people hate NetPlan

Hello #NetworkManager I have two wired network interfaces. I would like to connect to them both. Thank you.

Looks like I have a connection called "Automatic" that can only connect one of these at a time but not both. Works correctly on my laptop though. Grrr

#NetworkManager 1.56.1 is out now with support for the GENEVE interface, the ability to change the device's administrative state in the kernel at the same time as a change to the managed state from nmcli and the D-Bus API, and persistence of the managed state across reboots from nmcli and the D-Bus API https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/-/releases

After the last NetworkManager update, the use of aliases for the server no longer works #apache2 #networkmanager #postfix

Has anyone managed to get #Wireguard up and running with #NetworkManager on #Linux?

I had to switch backnto the Wireguard tools again, because although the connection is established, devices are not reachable.

In addition, the configuratiin is very cumbersome, as the wg0.conf file cannot simply be imported.

CISA Warns of Active Exploitation of SD-WAN Flaw

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has sounded the alarm on a newly discovered SD-WAN flaw that's already being exploited by attackers, giving US government agencies just four days to secure vulnerable systems. Time is of the essence in this urgent directive, which CISA has framed as an operational emergency.

Did a fresh install of #AlpineLinux. Switched to Edge to have an updated #Plasma desktop, and everything was great. So I set up #NetworkManager because wpa_supplicant makes me want to punch kittens whenever I have to use something other than my home network. Which worked great.

Start my laptop this morning, though, and it won't get pas starting the display manager during boot.

*sigh*

So… now I get to manually fix some config files or something I guess. Shoulda gone with #XFCE…

(Before anyone jumps on me, I obviously fucked up something in the configuration, this isn't #KDE's fault, and I 100% own that this is my fault. As usual, the Owlbear should not be taken seriously.) #Linux

Hat auch nichts gebracht. Kein Problem dann setze ich halt die DNS server selbst und nimm nicht die vom Hoster, welche über DHCP kommen.
Auch das bringt nichts.
#systemd-networkd installiert und #NetworkManager weggeworfen. Alles läuft wie es soll.
2/2

Außer am Laptop war ich eigentlich noch nie ein großer Fan vom #networkmanager

Beim (neuen) meines Vertrauens eine VM bestellt und tuwunel installiert. Daten, vom alten Server migriert, alles läuft super. Einmal neu starten und schauen ob nichts vergessen wurde (ja, ich sollte mehr infra in code gießen).
tuwunel mag nicht, weil das Netzwerk noch nicht fertig war als er erste lookups machen will.

Requires=network-online.target
