You were the one that said their were a variety
of applications that would act as a "front end" or give access to NM in
rl 3. What are they?
I was talking only about graphical frontend's and usually daemons
wouldn't have any command line front end's.
I guess any deamon of a bit of importance with a little bit of history
has one.
The fact nm doesn't seem to have speaks for itself.
NM is a daemon that was originally designed to manage wireless networks
on a laptop. Why would you want a command line interface for that? As it
extends further maybe but as of now I don't see any good use case for
that. There are others like yum-updatesd that doesn't like really have
any command line interfaces to the daemon itself. It is pretty common in
that aspect. They are merely desktop application helpers.
