Hey guys,

I just switched to NetworkManager and man, it fixed so many problems. However, now it shows that I have interfaces enp2s0 and 'system enp2s0'. Is that normal? I also have another interface enp4s0 that is doubled. The system ones are marked as never used.

And then, if you see the picture I have too many fake connections. Should they be deleted?

Code: Select all

[root@agronpc ~]# ifconfig -a

Please show the outputs of the following commands, all as normal user:

Code: Select all

LC_ALL=C nmcli -f all c
cat /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf
find /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/ -ls
ls -al /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-*
cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-*

And your assumption is correct, you should not have those duplicate connections.
