The inherent issue with earlier versions of NM is that it only started
when you logged in.  Consequently, network logins (LDAP, NIS/NIS+)
wouldn't work, nor would named, avahi or anything else that required
a network connection.  New versions of NM do have the ability to be
started via the startup scripts and various connections in NM's
configs can be tagged to start up at boot or upon a user login.

Unfortunately, since you're on F9 and there are no updates for it,
you're stuck unless you can force install a newer version of NM.
Absent that, you must use the older /etc/rc.d/init.d/network stuff.

That's just one reason to try to keep up with Fedora changes.  I
don't know if these new NM things have been ported to RHEL 5 (and
hence CentOS 5) or not.
