WICD-CURSES(8) System Manager's Manual WICD-CURSES(8) NAME
wicd-curses - curses-based wicd(8) controller DESCRIPTION
wicd-curses is a curses-based network controller that uses the Wired/Wireless Internet Connection Daemon (wicd) to control your network connections. It is suitable to run in terminal multiplexers like screen(1). It is designed to imitate the GTK-based wicd-client(1) as much as possible, and uses the Urwid (http://excess.org/urwid) console widget library to vastly simplify development. This man page only documents the current status of wicd-curses. This may/may not be the most up-to-date document. CONTROLS
All of these are case sensitive. C or enter Connect to selected network F8 or Q or q Quit the client. D Disconnect all devices from network connections ESC If connecting to a network, stop doing so F5 or R Refresh the network list P Bring up the preferences controller I Bring up hidden network scanning dialog H or h or ? Bring up a rather simplistic help dialog. Of course, it mentions this man page first. :-) A Raise the "About wicd-curses" dialog right-arrow Bring up network configuration controller for the selected network delete Delete the selected wired network profile (from the wired network combo box at the top) F2 Rename the selected wired network profile (from the wired network combo box at the top) S Bring up instructions on how to edit the scripts. I have implemented a way to do this in the interface itself, but making it func- tion with all Linux distros would be difficult. Since you are reading this, you should know how to do what I suggest. ;-) O Raise the Ad-Hoc network creation dialog FILES

Probably lots. ;-) If you happen to find one, ask about it on #wicd on freenode, or submit a bug report to http://launchpad.net/wicd. WICD-CURSES AUTHOR Andrew Psaltis <ampsaltis@gmail.com> WICD AUTHORS

IP-NETNS(8) Linux IP-NETNS(8) NAME
ip-netns - process network namespace management SYNOPSIS
ip [ OPTIONS ] netns { COMMAND | help } ip netns { list } ip netns { add | delete } NETNSNAME ip netns identify PID ip netns pids NETNSNAME ip netns exec NETNSNAME command ... ip netns monitor DESCRIPTION
A network namespace is logically another copy of the network stack, with its own routes, firewall rules, and network devices. By convention a named network namespace is an object at /var/run/netns/NAME that can be opened. The file descriptor resulting from opening /var/run/netns/NAME refers to the specified network namespace. Holding that file descriptor open keeps the network namespace alive. The file descriptor can be used with the setns(2) system call to change the network namespace associated with a task. For applications that are aware of network namespaces, the convention is to look for global network configuration files first in /etc/netns/NAME/ then in /etc/. For example, if you want a different version of /etc/resolv.conf for a network namespace used to isolate your vpn you would name it /etc/netns/myvpn/resolv.conf. ip netns exec automates handling of this configuration, file convention for network namespace unaware applications, by creating a mount namespace and bind mounting all of the per network namespace configure files into their traditional location in /etc. ip netns list - show all of the named network namespaces This command displays all of the network namespaces in /var/run/netns ip netns add NAME - create a new named network namespace If NAME is available in /var/run/netns/ this command creates a new network namespace and assigns NAME. ip netns delete NAME - delete the name of a network namespace If NAME is present in /var/run/netns it is umounted and the mount point is removed. If this is the last user of the network names- pace the network namespace will be freed, otherwise the network namespace persists until it has no more users. ip netns delete may fail if the mount point is in use in another mount namespace. ip netns identify PID - Report network namespaces names for process This command walks through /var/run/netns and finds all the network namespace names for network namespace of the specified process. ip netns pids NAME - Report processes in the named network namespace This command walks through proc and finds all of the process who have the named network namespace as their primary network names- pace. ip netns exec NAME cmd ... - Run cmd in the named network namespace This command allows applications that are network namespace unaware to be run in something other than the default network namespace with all of the configuration for the specified network namespace appearing in the customary global locations. A network namespace and bind mounts are used to move files from their network namespace specific location to their default locations without affecting other processes. ip netns monitor - Report as network namespace names are added and deleted This command watches network namespace name addition and deletion events and prints a line for each event it sees. EXAMPLES
ip netns list Shows the list of current named network namespaces ip netns add vpn Creates a network namespace and names it vpn ip netns exec vpn ip link set lo up Bring up the loopback interface in the vpn network namespace. SEE ALSO
