File README.urpmi of Package NetworkManager
This package includes BETA version of ifcfg-mdv system settings plugin, which adds support for Mandriva-specific interface configuration to NetworkManager. By default this plugin will NOT try to manage interfaces, configured using Mandriva Control Center, to avoid conflicts with standard tools. To enable interface to be managed by NetworkManager it is REQUIRED to set the following in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-XXX: ONBOOT=no NM_CONTROLLED=yes NetworkManager will try to automatically activate these interfaces on system startup. To change this, set _NM_ONBOOT=no. You can find the current code in GIT repository at http://github.com/eugeni/NetworkManager-mdv.
