hmnn. I admit I haven't done a RHEL 6.1 install yet. only 6.0 installs. 
For some reason on most of my hardware 
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 exists already at first boot on 
a fresh install. also I seem to have:

NM_CONTROLLED="yes"

so I think NetworkManager is using this configuration file. If you are 
running the network service make sure you stop NetworkManager service. I 
don't think both are supposed to be running. Maybe your interface is named 
something other than eth0?

I use NetworkManager on CentOS 5 at home and RHEL 6 at work and never have 
any problems with it. It seems to work pretty well for a desktop/laptop 
type system. For servers I still use the old school network service.

Cheers,
