network/interfaces overwritten on network module install

[whereisjernow@…]

Installing the ebox networks module replaced my /etc/network/interfaces file (which was written to enable wireless). This, in turn, killed my wireless ssh connection to my ebox.

Logging into the server from a connected terminal allowed we to rewrite /etc/network/interfaces and reenable wireless.

Ebox seems to have responded ok but required me to 'save changes' after logging in post-crash. Ebox warned me that it was going to rewrite my /etc/network/interfaces file this time and I refused.

Will keep this updated.

Yes, this is the expected behaviour. eBox is not thought to manage wireless networks, anyway we published some time ago a howto that makes use of hooks to configure them.

Take a look at this:  https://trac.ebox-platform.com/wiki/Document/HowTo/SetupWireless
