we are very much interested in NetworkManager being able to run in restricted environments (whatever that means exactly :) ). So, in general I would expect NetworkManager to work well for you. And if you encounter any issues, we would be happy to hear about them. Especially if you compile NetworkManager yourself, you should be able to reduce dependencies further. YMMV. good luck, Thomas
