I'm using NetworkManager for a long time, and it is not a desktop specific tool - it has interfaces for both GNOME and KDE, and I think for XFCE4 as well. Its a great tool for managing dynamic network interfaces on desktop machines, and with the correct integration it can also be used to setup VPNs and modem dialing, but I had no success using it to control broadband dialers (DSL and cable). -- Oded ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
