Hi guys I'm trying to experiment with NM dispatchers but I can't seem to get anything done. I have a very basic script in /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/02test: #!/bin/sh -e echo "Starting ModemManager" ModemManager --debug & But it is not running. I have made sure the scripts and directories are executable (a+x). But I cannot seem to get the scripts to run. Can someone help me with this please? NetworkManager --version 0.9.4.0
You probably also need to enable a service called NetworkManager- dispatcher or nm-dispatcher.
Question 2: I wanted to use the dispatcher script to start ModemManager on startup and to enable the 3G modem I have. Can it be done? I have seen examples of how to start a connection when an interface comes up but nothing that could help me with this.
It looks very wrong to start ModemManager from a dispatcher script. Those scripts are invoked often and at various times, you don't want to start ModemManager every time something happens with a networking interface. Instead, start ModemManager as a regular system service, just like NetworkManager. Thomas
