Donning flame retardant cloak, I have a question for the network
experienced...

After doing a non-fedora install of a like OS (but more community
centric;)
, I find the network stack falls over if a user login on the console
logs out!

anyone ever seen seen such a weirdness?
   I am not sure where to look for this and welcome any clues...

If you're talking of a GUI login on the console (e.g. KDE, Gnome, etc.)
AND the user runs the NetworkManager applet, of course it'll go away as
the user who set up the network is no longer at the machine. NM will
shut the network down until the (or another) user logs in again at the
console.

Unless NetworkManager is told to allow all users to use the network
profile (i.e., make it a system-wide profile).

Still wouldn't function unless someone's logged in. Personally, I never
use NM except on a laptop that's going to roam. I use the old, crusty
network scripts for machines that stay put.

Wisdom I can identify with, Thx, ...
