Title:
  sharing connection with networkmanager makes NM go into buggy state

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: network-manager

  Use case:
  Laptop's X/GUI was broken due to alpha release of lucid
  wanted to connect my laptop with desktop's extra NIC
  Wanted to share desktop's upstream connection (eth0) with eth1, which on its part is connected with the laptop.

  Opened network settings through nm-applet, edit "Auto eth1", set ipv4
  settings to "shared to other computers."

  notify-osd now goes haywire, reporting wired connection established
  and wired connection disconnected in a endless loop.

  Looking at ifconfig output, repeated many times on the command line,
  does, sometimes for short periods 1 second or so, show that eth1 has a
  10.x.x.x ip address, which is good I think because this would be
  necessary for the NAT workings.

  Disabling network connection with nm-applet does not stop notify-osd
  from looping the same message over and over.
