Hi,
on ubuntu feisty fawn you can manage your dial-up connections simply
creating an entry for each of them  in /etc/network/interfaces.
The only odd thing is that with the nm included in feisty, dbus doesn't
get notified by nm that a connection is available, so many programs stay
in off-line mode :-|

For the moment i'm using a package i've found on ubuntuforums.org built
for feisty some time ago on a cvs snapshot of the 0.7 version and,
i'm able to manage dial-up connections and even if it's not completely
stable... that's better than nothing ;-)


cheers
Roberto
