USERCTL=yes lets you bring the interface up and down using ifup and
ifdown. I forget what GUI tools does the same things for you. (You
have to run /sbin/ifup eth0 as a user.) But you can only use
pre-defined network settings. (Static or dynamic.)
In system-config-network, there is a checkbox "Allow all users to enable and
disable the device" in Devices/Edit. Nevertheless, I'm curious where
USERCTL=yes should be written.
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-<device> (where <device> is the name
of the interface you want to control, e.g., eth0, eth1, ppp0, etc.
