Recently I've been playing with configuring bind and dhcp on a local server. During the experimentation process I somehow managed to break the network widget in the panel. It currently shows the network disconnected icon and tooltip (see attached images) but the network itself works fine.
ifconfig shows
Code: Select all

So there seems to be a disconnect between the GUI and ifconfig.
How can I fix this?
