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

After The command a less than symbol appears and it stays that way without nothing changing. How to know whether the Network Manager is Installed, whether is it working?
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:
   Â> '
That would have closed the quoted string and you're off to the races.
Rich Thanks and it started working But what are the other command That can be made use of when using Network Manager Below is what has appeared in my terminal now
Setting network parameters... [ OK ] Starting NetworkManager daemon:
Where can I find more information about Network Manager to used in the Command Line way
NetworkManager is not very well documented. It's supposed to "just work" and when it doesn't, it's not easy to see why. I contacted the authors of it several times and offered to write documentation, but never got a response from them.
By default, it should start and handle your network connections. You can ensure it starts by entering this command as the root user:
chkconfig --level 2345 NetworkManager on
Is the level 345 or 2345.According the FAQ it is 345?
This should ensure it starts up the next time you boot up.
