<title>NetworkManager</title>

<para>To facilitate network configuration, some desktop environments
use NetworkManager. You can enable NetworkManager by setting:

<programlisting>
networking.networkmanager.enable = true;
</programlisting>

some desktop managers (e.g., GNOME) enable NetworkManager
automatically for you.</para>

<para>All users that should have permission to change network settings
must belong to the <code>networkmanager</code> group.</para>

<note><para><code>networking.networkmanager</code> and
<code>networking.wireless</code> can not be enabled at the same time:
you can still connect to the wireless networks using
NetworkManager.</para></note>
