To follow up with my previous post, actually, it does work. I didn't
realize it, but NetworkManager was indeed installed and running. My
experience in the past was that it wasn't configured with a "minimal"
install.

What's the proper way to switch from NetworkManager to the standard
"network" format? I've just removed the NetworkManager packages, and
it seems to work, but perhaps there's some configuration option I'm
missing?

Thanks,
Alex
