[HanoiLUG] Next Linux install-party ?

[Tuan Nguyen]

the network manager in ubuntu 6.10 doesn't do that.
I forgot to mention something: I have to connect to both networks in
my company using static IP addresses (thanks to the admin there !).
Maybe, Network Mangager in Ubuntu 6.10  can't do the switch among
networks automatically in this case.
Windows (XP) handles this case well though.
