Is the 'network' > service supposed to be running while the NetworkManager service is on? There is no such thing as *the* 'network' service (in the sense I think you mean). People on this list are using Network vs. NM as a shorthand for two ways of configuring the various network components, some of which are in the kernel and some in user space. Specifically when they say Network in this context they mean the set of scripts invoked via the system-config-network command. > Is it compiled into the kernel? I thought it was a module? Are those > questions even relevant? The TCP/IP network protocol stack is wired into the kernel. Various device drivers may be wired in or loadable as modules. Other bits such as DHCP service run in user space. > ps aux shows NetworkManager but no 'network' or friends.
