And it is working for me pretty fine in Mageia Cauldron, specially for
wireless networks, in 3 or 4 laptops. I finally have been able to do things
that I had never managed to set up with net-applet:
- have a zillion (well, really like 5 or 6) wifi network setups in
/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections and let the daemon pick one without
the need to rewrite ifcfg-wlan0 (even automagically)
- have a wireless network being started and connected without a user logged in,
just at system boot
- restart daemons like gmond, that do not play fine on network ups and downs
from /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d
Setting all those things is easy from the point of view of a cli admin, you can
even copy many things from one system to another and have it working.
I vote for going to NM, and use a setup tool that writes files into
/etc/NetworkManager/system-connection for wired system connections.
And I really think that NM plays much nicer with the rest of systemd
environment than current scripts.
Just my 2 cents...
