-NetworkManager consists of two parts: one is on the system level daemon that
-manages the connections and gathers information about new networks. The other 
-is a systray applet that users can use to interact with the NetworkManager 
-daemon. 
-
-Security
-~~~~~~~~
-To allow users to connect to the NetworkManager daemon they have to be in the
-group "netdev". If you want to add a user to group "netdev" use the command
-"adduser username netdev" or one of the graphical user management frontends.
-After that you have to reload D-Bus with the command "/etc/init.d/dbus reload".
-
-Configuration of wireless and ethernet interfaces
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-Only devices that are *not* listed in /etc/network/interfaces or which have 
-been configured "auto" and "dhcp" (with no other options) are managed by NM.
-
-This way you can setup a custom (static) configuration for a device and NM 
-will not try to override this setting.
-
-After modifying /etc/network/interfaces you have to restart NM with the
-command "/etc/dbus-1/event.d/25NetworkManager restart".
-
-Examples:
-
-1.)
-auto wlan0
-iface wlan0 inet dhcp
--> This device is managed by NM.
-
-1.a)
-allow-hotplug eth0
-iface eth0 inet dhcp
--> This device is managed by NM
-
-2.)
-auto wlan0
-iface wlan0 inet dhcp
-	wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
--> This devices is *not* managed by NM because it has additional options.
-
-3.)
-iface wlan0 inet dhcp
--> This device is *not* managed by NM because it is not set to "auto".
-
-4.)
-iface eth0 inet static
-	address 192.168.1.10
-	netmask 255.255.255.0
-	gateway 192.168.1.1
--> This device is *not* managed by NM because it is configured as "static" and
-   has additional options.
-
-5.)
-Device is not listed in /etc/network/interfaces.
--> Device is managed by NM.
-
-Dial-up configuration
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-After configuring your PPP interface (either manually or by using a tool like
-"pppconfig") to work with a peer called "myisp" you should edit 
-/etc/network/interfaces and add a stanza like this:
-
-iface ppp0 inet ppp
-	provider myisp
-
-NM will then make it possible to dial this connection.
-If you want to set up multiple internet service providers simply create a new 
-stanza as listed above specifying the provider and a different iface, e.g. ppp1.
-
-After modifying /etc/network/interfaces you have to restart NM with the
-command "/etc/dbus-1/event.d/25NetworkManager restart".
-
-Please read the "Debian Reference Manual", section 10.6.1.4 or the "interfaces"
-man page for further information.
