Hi all,
the following sentence is not clear to me:

"Network Manager knows how to handle various types of connections (DHCP,
manual configuration, local network), but only if the configuration is
set with the program itself. This is why it will systematically ignore
all network interfaces in <filename>/etc/network/interfaces</filename>
for which it is not suited. The settings are very strict; details are
available in the
<filename>/usr/share/doc/network-manager/README.Debian</filename> file.
Since Network Manager doesn't give details when no network connections
are shown, the easy way is to delete from
(<filename>/etc/network/interfaces</filename>) any configuration for all
interfaces that must be managed by Network Manager."

Would it be possible to change
"(<filename>/etc/network/interfaces</filename>)" in
"<filename>/etc/network/interfaces</filename>"?

Bye,
Giuseppe
