Hi All;

I ran a yum update tonite and after a reboot I no longer had a copy of the 
Network Manager in my system tray.  Also I could no longer run the Network 
Manager (nm-applet) from the command line. It ran but still failed to show up 
in the system tray.

Plus if I ran "ifup etho" I got an error that the network was 'down'.  And 
finally I went to the network device control and it showed no devices.

Fortunately I run an rsync backup before I do any updates. I ran an rsync 
restore of the following directories and everything is back to where it was 
before the update.

bin
boot
etc
lib
lib64
lost+found
opt
root
sbin
selinux
srv
usr
var


Anyone have any thoughts per the Network Manager issue ?


Thanks in advance
