I'm trying to figure out the connection sharing option in F15. I connect to internet using PPPoE, and, till now, I used "old" network configuration (and disabled network manager) to setup a static IP address and PPPoE connection, and then used masquerading to share connection to other computers on the network. In F15 I can't find a way to make such configuration and also can't find an option in NM to enable connection sharing for DSL connection. Is there anything I'm missing?

Thanks, for the link, but this won't help even when it will be ready. I don't have wireless connection. I have only one NIC, connected to local home network, and my DSL modem connected to same network. So, I want to connect to internet using PPPoE and share this connection. Unfortunately, NetworkManager never supported such configuration -- you can only have one connection over one NIC. Fortunately, system-config-network always supported it. But I can't find it in F15 anymore.

Maybe it's better to use old method and disable Network Manager? Then you could configure network by scripts. -- Hiisi

Is old method working still? System-config-network is now console application and it can't setup DSL connection at all. Am I missing something here? It will be sad if I have to create ifcfg scripts manually.

That's great! So, it is just isn't installed by default? I hope this will still be available in future releases as well.

Yes, good old method is still working. First one have to disable networkmanager: service NetworManager stop chkconfig NetworkManager off Then it's a matter of few minutes to put well documented good known commands into sysconfig scripts ;-) Good luck! -- Hiisi
