/e/n/i contains:
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
so assuming NetworkManager.conf contains
[ifupdown]
managed=false
it's expected that NM doesn't manage eth0.

Title:
dhcp fails, but succeeds after ifdown/ifup in rc.local
Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Binary package hint: network-manager
The bug occurred after upgrading to jaunty.
I'm not sure about the network-manager, it could also be the kernel, a driver
for my network card,
or perhaps the cause in the reorderings done to increase the booting speed in
jaunty.
Also I expect this to be duplicate bug, but I couldn't determine an existing
one that was really close enough.
I reported this earlier at this existing report, but then found that
ubuntu-bug is preferred, so
I'm repeating this here:
can't connect via dhcp
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/312157
After boot using the default kernel there is no wired connection to the
internet, but everything on the local network is available. (ping by name to
local machines works, but pop for email fails.)
If I did not have another machine on the local network, I would have had no
way to know how to fix this, as this isolates the upgraded machine from the
internet.
I can always correct this by doing:
sudo ifdown eth0
sudo ifup eth0
Since this is repeatable, I'd like to hunt it down to the source of the
problem, but I have no idea how to proceed.
The network icon in the system tray does not show an active network
(neither wired nor wireless) before and after the ifdown/ifup fix.
Any suggestions as to what I could do to fix this?
