hi william...

good to see you're back online!! as to networkmanager.. i've never gotten it
to "work" as it should. but given that it's basically a wrapper app, most of
the functionality to manage the nic is pretty straight forward either from
the cmd line, or from the text/gui system-config-network app...

let us know if you need any help!

To me, at the moment, the problem is not solved by turning
NetworkManager off.  (It is off for the moment so I can do some other
work easily.)  I consider it a bit of a challenge to either get it
working or finding out what the real 'bug' is.
