network service is disabled but refuses to unplug.  Every time I try to
'stop' in either the services 'gui' or by command line I get the
following SELinux warning:

SELinux is preventing ifup-eth (hotplug_t) "append"
to ./dhclient-eth0.conf (etc_t). 

[SELinux is in permissive mode, the operation would have been denied but
was permitted due to permissive mode.] 

Trying to stop network by the command line:

]# service network stop
Shutting down interface eth0:                              [  OK  ]
Shutting down loopback interface:                          [  OK  ]

]# service network status
Configured devices:
lo eth0
Currently active devices:
eth0

Done
]# service NetworkManager status
NetworkManager (pid 2339) is running...

The applet appear's to function correctly.

As additional referrence:
/etc/hosts
# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1	CASE localhost.localdomain	 localhost
::1		     localhost6.localdomain6 	 localhost6

/etc/resolv.conf
# generated by NetworkManager, do not edit!

Does NetworkManager have a separate configuration file?  If so, where is
it?
