Why do we bother shipping s-c-n if the config files it's saving are 
considered 'legacy'?
Or are you saying those files will become legacy in a future version?

What files does networkmanager use? How can I configure and start/ stop 
a connection using networkmanager on the command line? The website at 
(http://people.redhat.com/dcbw/NetworkManager) doesn't have any user 
documentation whatsoever.
