Re: network manager Question

[Dan Williams <dcbw redhat com>]

Whatever mechanism PLD (or whatever distro you're running) uses to start
and stop sysv services.  On fedora that's "/sbin/service NetworkManager
stop" or System->Administration->Services, but other distros do it
differently.

The sledgehammer is (as root) "killall -TERM NetworkManager", but that
doesn't let the system clean up after itself.
