10 KNetworkConf is a KDE Control Center module to configure the Network
11 settings in a Linux machine. I developed it because I couldn't find any
12 application to do this from within KDE, and I think this is a "must have"
13 app for a serious Desktop Enviroment like KDE.
15 KNetworkConf features:
17 * Configure installed network devices (you can't add new ones for now)
18 in basic and advanced mode (ie. don't auto configure broadcast and
20 * Autodetection of wireless interfaces.
21 * Configure the default gateway and gateway device.
22 * Configure host and domain names.
23 * Add/remove DNS servers (/etc/resolv.conf).
24 * Add/Remove known Hosts (/etc/hosts).
26 KNetworkConf works now in 15 different platforms:
36 * Polish Linux Distribution
43 KNetworkConf uses the Gnome System Tools (gst)
44 (http://www.gnome.org/projects/gst/) network backend to find out the network
45 values in a platform-independient manner. This backends are a bunch of perl
46 scripts that use XML files to communicate with different frontends.
48 NOTE:You don't need to have GNOME nor GST installed AT ALL to run
49 KNetworkConf. The network backend comes included.
56 * autoconf > 2.5x/automake > 1.6
59 For installation instructions, please see the INSTALL file, but for
60 a quick start you can do:
67 Mandrake users must add --preix=/usr to the configure script to
68 install the files in the correct path and run update-menus after make install.
