Hi all, I've recently started using NetworkManger service and nmcli tool, I like it much better than the old network service and manually modifying network scripts. I've seen many online questions on how to disable NetworkManger but I have the opposite question! I am wondering if it be OK to disable network service altogether and just use NetworkManger for configuring and managing Ethernet interfaces. I care about wired Ethernet interfaces only.

I disabled network service and rebooted my machine without any networking problem but I wanted to conform that that would be OK.

Thanks,

Joe
