This is the NetworkManager applet running in sys-firewall. Normally,
sys-firewall is connected to sys-net for network access, and the
NetworkManager applet only runs in sys-net. (The situation can be
different if you're running things like VPN VMs, but we'll set those
aside here.)

In short: the NetworkManager applet shouldn't be visible in
sys-firewall in the first place, but it's not a big problem (just a
confusing one). There's normally a script that hides it, but in your
case, that's not working for some reason.

You should be able to kill the applet by opening a terminal in
sys-firewall, then running:

    $ sudo kill $(pidof nm-applet)

So, are you still having problems updating dom0 and your templates? If
so, can you explain the problems?
