Description Carlton Brown

2009-07-09 11:20:29 EDT

Build ID: 20090619-0625

Steps To Reproduce:
1.  Go to 'Network Connections' screen in preferences
2.  Change a proxy port value in any proxy entry
3.  Click 'Restore defaults' and observe that nothing happens


More information:
It appears that the 'Restore Defaults' button does nothing but switch the active provider to 'Native'.

Switching provider to 'Native' restores the default behavior. This is because entries for other providers are ignored and entries that correspond to 'Native' are controlled by OS (we can't do nothing more than scan them).

I'll add clearing entries for other providers after selecting 'Restore Defaults' to fully restore the default state.

partial patch

This patch works for proxy settings but not fully restores bypasses settings. The reason is that we do not know which bypass was added by user and which is default one. To avoid to hardcoding default values again and set them in preferences the better solution should be to use default preferences and just restore them when press on Restore Defaults button.

Current patch does not use default settings. Support for them will be provided in fix for bug 242057. If fix for bug 242057 is correct, I will provide new patch for 283036.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. As such, we're closing this bug.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it and reopen this bug. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
