  • 772

Using ubuntu core trying to edit netplan config in /etc/netplan/00-snapd-config.yaml

This command sudo nano /etc/netplan/00-snapd-config.yaml

Outputs [ Error reading /etc/netplan/00-snapd-config.yaml: Permission denied ]

nano was installed with sudo snap install nano Is there a way to edit /etc configuration files with a snap store text editor?

    For ubuntu core you have to copy the netplan file to /home/user before editing, then copy it back to etc/netplan and apply. Connect nano to home interface.
