The command line shows: ]# service network status Configured devices: lo eth0 Currently active devices: lo eth0 ]# service network stop Shutting down interface eth0: [ OK ] Shutting down loopback interface: [ OK ] and then; NetworkManager's gui shows warning 'disconnected'; does its grind; produces a dialogue (tool tip thingy) that says I am reconnected.
