Description Danny Al-Gaaf 2006-12-04 16:48:05 UTC

If I select while config DSL Provider to ask allways for the password (and don't store the password) the yast dialog should display a warning that this would not work with NetworkManager, but with kinternet. 

Reason: NM only allow PPP connections if the password is stored. 

Btw. The modem dialog has already a warning that NM maybe not provide everything and that you should use kinternet instead.

I think that would be helpful.

Also error detection in yast2 should be investigated. Several references are made to kinternet and it shows that is it restarting kinternet as it restarts services.

However, as we see in #166997 where kinternet is not even installed on the system this fails to raise any error condition and gets silently ignored.

I can only assume that any other errors that may occur in restarting the required  services will equally be ignored.

fixed in yast2-network-2.16.12
