The network configuration GUI is not to be found on any of the CentOS repos or on EPEL. I am not interested in having NetworkManager installed on a server. Is there an application that takes the place of system-config-network?

Upstream has deprecated anything but NetworkManager. There is still system-config-network-tui and the regular config files. At the moment, if you want GUI network config you're needing NetworkManager and friends. That's an upstream decision, not a CentOS one.

There was much discussion about this on the RHEL 6 beta list several months ago. Many complaints but nothing came of it as far as I know. I just edit the config files in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/.

That's actually RHEL 6.1 kernel :)

I guess I'll have to do that as well. I couldn't manage bridge network via the GUI anyway. I might try installing NetworkManager and disabling NM control for the bridged devices, but for now it seems easier to just edit the files in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts.
After all, they shouldn't be changing all that often on servers anyway...

virt-manager now has the ability to setup/manage bridges. I belive that came in one of the early redhat 6.0 updates and was not in the original 6.0 redhat release, so I can't say weather it's available in centos at this time.

I believe, judging from a fairly recent Fedora, that the bridge still has to be set up manually. Once it's setup, virt-manager can handle it.

Having had to deal with this a *lot* across a variety of Fedora-based systems for several months now, the most reliable replacement for NetworkManager I have found truly is vi.
