1. Introduction
|
|
KNetworkConf is a KDE Control Center module to configure the Network
|
|
settings in a Linux machine. I developed it because I couldn't find any
|
|
application to do this from within KDE, and I think this is a "must have"
|
|
app for a serious Desktop Enviroment like KDE.
|
|
|
|
KNetworkConf features:
|
|
|
|
* Configure installed network devices (you can't add new ones for now)
|
|
in basic and advanced mode (ie. don't auto configure broadcast and
|
|
netmask values).
|
|
* Autodetection of wireless interfaces.
|
|
* Configure the default gateway and gateway device.
|
|
* Configure host and domain names.
|
|
* Add/remove DNS servers (/etc/resolv.conf).
|
|
* Add/Remove known Hosts (/etc/hosts).
|
|
|
|
KNetworkConf works now in 15 different platforms:
|
|
|
|
* BlackPanther OS
|
|
* Conectiva Linux
|
|
* Debian Linux
|
|
* Fedora Linux
|
|
* FreeBSD
|
|
* Gentoo Linux
|
|
* Mandriva Linux
|
|
* OpenNA Linux
|
|
* Polish Linux Distribution
|
|
* Red Hat Linux
|
|
* Slackware Linux
|
|
* Specifix Linux
|
|
* TurboLinux
|
|
* Vine Linux
|
|
|
|
KNetworkConf uses the Gnome System Tools (gst)
|
|
(http://www.gnome.org/projects/gst/) network backend to find out the network
|
|
values in a platform-independient manner. This backends are a bunch of perl
|
|
scripts that use XML files to communicate with different frontends.
|
|
|
|
NOTE:You don't need to have GNOME nor GST installed AT ALL to run
|
|
KNetworkConf. The network backend comes included.

For installation instructions, please see the INSTALL file, but for
|
|
a quick start you can do:

./configure

make

Mandriva users must add --prefix=/usr to the configure script to
