Thanks. (It's becoming obvious I couldn't have just scraped up an Ubuntu
NM 0.7 up on my own w/o a lot of help.)

My next stop was to grab some of the "rogue" .debs out there I've seen
for NM 0.7.X and disassemble one- take it apart, see the installed files
and the scripts then duplicate what I can.

I hate to keep asking silly questions, but which/what distro config
tools won't I able to integrate with, and will that be a problem if I
just use NM to manage my interfaces?
