Perhaps. I found it extremely frustrating that my usual sources of
information (apropos, man, info) and some geeky tools (tcpdump, strace)
led to no enlightenment whatsoever on this issue. The googling took
place later, when I had a working network connection, and was equally
un-enlightening.<br>
<br>
Which makes me genuinely wonder: am I just stupid? Is there some
source of enlightenment that I'm completely missing? If an experienced
Linux user like myself could not find this critical piece of
information (nscd must be restarted when moving between wifi networks)
using system-local documentation and tools, then what hope for the
newbie?<br>

Thanks, Jim. Since Slackware is pissing me off by not even recognizing
my wifi card, I'm going back to F13 for a bit.<br>
<br>
Was there some obvious place I could have found out about the need to
restart nscd when moving between networks? (And for the love of all
that's holy, why doesn't the all-singing, all-dancing Network Manager
just do that automatically?) I googled my ass off without achieving
any enlightenment.<br>
