Thanks for the ones that read this.

But i tried by cli and it works, something with network manager and the WTF keyring....

Solved this one in the old way of Red Hat 6.0 and pppd call.

hi there here is how my interface file looks like

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.20.224
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.20.0
broadcast 192.168.20.255
gateway 192.168.20.99

auto eth0:0
iface eth0:0 inet static
name Ethernet alias LAN card
address 10.0.0.32
netmask 255.255.0.0
network 10.0.0.0
broadcast 10.0.255.255
gateway 10.0.0.19


but after logging in i notice that the network manager icon does not show the usual connected icon but shows as if it is disconnected. also when i click on "edit connections" two connections show up
ifupdown(eth0)
ifupdown(eth0:0)
i just want to see the network icon to be connected. can any one explain to me. thanks.
