Out of interest, what is the canonical (vs Canonical) way of giving NM a kick when you've changed something, apart from logging out/in? In the olde days when manually editing /etc/network/interfaces I used to do /etc/init.d/network restart or ifdown eth0; ifup eth0, but NM often appears to ignore those. And where does NM actually store it's configuration? Sometimes I'd like to see what NM thinks all it's settings are. I've looked through files mentioned in dpkg -L, no dice. Started to look through the source code, got sidetracked.
