Static Network Issues

Have they been resolved? I tried Herd 4 but had to manually (ifconfig) configure my network each boot as the network control would not commit changes.

It is/was Network Manager interfering, one of the reasons I am going to reinstall with server. On the other hand in the last set of updates there was an update for NM so perhaps it is corrected.

If you configure the card in /etc/network/interfaces however (versus using the GUI) a static address will hold and work fine regardless.
