While I'm not a Fedora user, NM should work just fine from any level. There are two prerequisites however: 1) You need to make sure all the required services are up (hal, dbus) 2) You need some sort of connection provided by: 2.1) An NM client 2.2) A system connection While 2.1 is currently not possible without using X (there are only 2 clients, one for GNOME and one for KDE) nothing should prevent you from using a system-level connection. The method of configuring it depends on loaded plugins (either keyfile config or distro-specific /etc/ files for interfaces). -- Patryk Zawadzki _______________________________________________ NetworkManager-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
