Yes, that's the correct setting. But it doesn't matter when the
terminology is, it doesn't change anything unless you shut down NM and
start network on boot.
$ cat /etc/fedora-release
Fedora release 9 (Sulphur)
# chkconfig --list NetworkManager
NetworkManager 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off
# chkconfig --list network
network 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off
# service NetworkManager status
NetworkManager (pid 3088) is running...
# service network status
Configured devices:
lo eth0
Currently active devices:
lo eth0
# cat /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth0
# Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88E8001 Gigabit Ethernet Controller
DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
HWADDR=00:11:d8:bd:00:b3
ONBOOT=yes
NM_CONTROLLED=yes
TYPE=Ethernet
USERCTL=no

Result : Ethernet network starts on boot, no user login necessary.

I'm really tired of this thread. I've said what I wanted to
say, not
that it changes anything, but it does make me feel better.
Obviously there is a problem. Rather that simply proclaim it doesn't
work, we should try to determine where the fault is as it does and can
actually work.
