</I>Yes, the problem at the moment is coordination between udev and
drakconnect and NM. The present policy is that NM will *not* be the
default, which is why udev creates the ifcfg files.
NM is designed to assume that it is in charge of all interfaces. The
only concession to coexistence with ifplugd is that if an ifcfg exists
*and* it has NM_CONTROLLED=NO, then NM will not try to control the
interface. Conversely, if ifplugd finds that an ifcfg exists *and* it
has NM_CONTROLLED=YES, then it will ignore it.
For total coordination between all of these, udev, drakconnect, and
ifplugd would have to look for and check /etc/NetworkManager.conf to
determine whether NM was active and whether it was paying any attention
to ifcfg files. That would determine whether ifplugd would attept to
control any interfaces at all, and whether drakconnect would even try to
build ifcfg files for them.
