<title>Introduction to NetworkManager</title>
<para><application>NetworkManager</application> is a set of co-operative
tools that make networking simple and straightforward. Whether WiFi, wired,
3G, or Bluetooth, NetworkManager allows you to quickly move from one network
to another: once a network has been configured and joined once, it can be
detected and re-joined automatically the next time its available.</para>

<title>Command Explanations</title>
<para><command>patch -Np1 -i ../NetworkManager-&NetworkManager-version;-lfs-1.patch</command>:
This command adds some code to enable the application to run on LFS.</para>
<para><parameter>--libexecdir=/usr/lib/NetworkManager</parameter>: This parameter puts
the action files and crash-logger in a directory which is compatible with the
<literal>FHS</literal>.</para>
<para><parameter>--localstatedir=/var</parameter>: This command
puts files in <filename class="directory">/var</filename> instead of
<filename class="directory">/usr/var</filename>.</para>
<para><parameter>--with-systemdsystemunitdir=no</parameter>: This parameter is
needed to avoid <application>systemd</application> files being installed.</para>
<para><parameter>--with-crypto=gnutls</parameter>: This parameter ensures
the package uses <application>gnutls</application> for cryptography, instead
of <application>nss</application>.</para>
<para><parameter>--disable-wimax</parameter>: This parameter prevents the
package attempting to use the Intel WiMAX SDK.</para>
<para><parameter>--disable-ppp</parameter>: This parameter prevents the
package from including ppp support.</para>
<para><option>--with-distro=lfs</option>: This parameter is only needed if you
failed to create <filename>/etc/lfs-release</filename> when you installed LFS.
