I am trying this on a 12.3 system (I know...) and when I switch from traditional to Network Manager, none of the existing interface settings are used. All devices are set to DHCP. And, as the user I am, I need to configure the wired connections to have a fixed address. And it lets me. And I am not root. This is what I wanted to not allow. Since Network Manager did not start with the device configurations in /etc/sysconfig/network, how would it have the system settings and not allow the user to set things? What settings are used? So I should assume that this is different for newer systems, and this is just a problem with the old 12.3 NetworkManager? On Sat, May 23, 2015 at 12:28 AM, Carlos E.

In NetworkManager you can have connections that start on system start, "shared" for all users, that require the root password to change. But the user can add/remove/configure his own connections.
is that the case in 13.1? if so, I will have to check this out. I don't recall the root password thing. I recall that you could change everything.
Yes, absolutely. The user can connect and disconnect, but for configuration it requires the root password. And it starts automatically on boot.
13.2 I haven't tested.
