Fedora 8 Test 3 has been released. "Fedora 8 Test 3 is here! This is the last test release before the development freeze and a great time to test all those packages that you know and love. Test 3 is for beta users. This is the time when we must have full community participation. Without this participation both hardware and software functionality suffers."

The release notes talk about NetworkManager being included in Fedora 8, but has NetworkManager 0.7 been released yet?

Network Manager upstream is maintained by Dan Williams from Red Hat who also maintains the Fedora package. He has pushed a SVN snapshot

From the notes it sounds like they *finally* made NetworkManager work without a user login.

That's why I've never used it before. I want my computer to be online even if no one is logged in.

So why use NetworkManager at all? It is an interactive application. You should use the traditional ifup method.
