[Thommy M. Malmström]

A somewhat easier question then. What's up when the NWAM GUI says
"Needs network selection"?


bge0 connects immediatley I put in the cable and ath0 sometimes when I
disconnect the cable. But "sometimes" is something that I'm not used
to running Solaris, more often when on Windows...

Are there any files to edit instead of fiddling with the GUI???
