Is the Network Manager installed by default when Fedora 14 is installed by a Live CD I installed using a Live CD. According to the Faq at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Tools/NetworkManager under the Question Command Line Way it is said to give the command "su -c '/sbin/service NetworkManager start " to start the service But When given the command at the terminal no message of any sort appears and even not the prompt appears what appears is as below
Quote: su -c '/sbin/service NetworkManager start

You need a closing quote:
su -c '/sbin/service NetworkManager start'
The ">" prompt is the shell asking you to complete the quoted string, so you could have put a single quote after it and hit ENTER:

That would have closed the quoted string and you're off to the races. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Systems Engineer, C2 Hosting ricks@nerd.com - - AIM/Skype: therps2 ICQ: 22643734 Yahoo: origrps2 - - - - "Microsoft is a cross between The Borg and the Ferengi. - - Unfortunately they use Borg to do their marketing and Ferengi to - - do their programming." -- Simon Slavin - ----------------------------------------------------------------------
