Re: [CentOS] CentOS 7.5 (1804) and NetworkManager

In CentOS / Fedora I simply disable NetworkManager service and put into ifcfg-xxx (eg ifcfg-eth0) the line

NM_CONTROLLED=no

OK, I played around with this quite a bit. Here's my findings.

1. On my KDE workstation, NetworkManager cannot be removed, because this would also remove GDM.

2. NetworkManager can be disabled though. On the other hand, I get a big fat warning on startup for "NetworkManager dependency not met".

3. For now, the KISS approach seems to be to just leave NetworkManager installed and running, and to configure network-scripts/ifcfg-enp0s3 like this:

DEVICE=enp0s3 TYPE=Ethernet ONBOOT=yes BOOTPROTO=dhcp NM_CONTROLLED=no

Cheers & thanks for your numerous suggestions.
