Does network manager has C/C++ API similar to MS Windows - create config entry, dial this entry by network manager etc? The recommended (and only?) API for NM is to go through D-BUS IPC. See the archive of this list. You can use C/C++ with D-BUS. But you have the pain of using a low-level language, while waiving compile-time checks because of D-BUS. And I can hardly see any performance critical tasks here. Use another language maybe? ___ NetworkManager-list mailing list NetworkManager-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list Thanks for quick reply. I shall read d-bus manual, because C++ using is important. NetworkManager exposes a D-Bus API (which is lightweight IPC) like many services do these days on Linux. The wiki pages at: http://live.gnome.org/NetworkManager have a bunch of information about it. Python is actually the easiest to use with D-Bus, but you can also use C/C++ if you like. NM provides a helper library for GLib-based programs (http://www.gtk.org/features.html near the bottom in Foundations) that hides most of the D-Bus complexity behind an object-based interface, but if you're new to both D-Bus and GLib that may not be the best approach. The is more information about C++ bindings for D-Bus available at: http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/dbus-c%2B%2B but the normal C bindings (libdbus) should also obviously work.

I'd like the ability to stack vpn connections as I've done this w/o network manager sucessfully in linux and other os's. Basically, I vpn into X and while connected to X via vpn, I vpn into Y. I dont think more that two or three layers deep would be needed. Obviously any controlling PCF's override this ability. Interesting. I think this would work when we add support for multiple concurrent VPN connections. This has been on the roadmap since forever but there's been a lack of time to do it. It's not too hard since most of the work is already done, but it would require a bit of refactoring for the VPN service daemons themselves. 2) VPNC (cisco) Comment, any idea if tcp tunneling is in the works ?
