Network Manager problems

[Diego González <dggonz gmail com>]

Hi i have managed to install Network Manager on a debian system, I had
to modify some of the directories that dhcdbd looks in, everything
seems to be working ok during the 25 first seconds, the wired
interface is brought up using the dhcp information, the dns daemon
updated, i can ping google.com. But after 25 seconds the wired
interface falls. I have still not looked to see if the wireless
inteface works.

I activated the dhcdbd debug, this are part of the logs that NM and
dhcdbd produce:
