My problem is that those two file do not belong to any rpm ?? How can I restore them ??
Is it normal to have such important files (or actually any file at all) not dealt with rpm ?? In my (probably simplistic) view, every non-generated system file should be assigned to an rpm...
To reply to myself. Those files are in the rpm NetworkManager in fedora 10 (wrong option in rpm -q). But I removed and re-installed those packages (in Fedora 12) and they have not been installed. There is cleraly something I do not understand...

To reply once more to myself, I finally found the problem and it has little to do with the above... The cure was:
rm /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state
For some reason, this file was containing something like: [main] NetworkingEnabled=false WirelessEnabled=false WWANEnabled=false
This setup was surviving to every reboot or restart of NetworkManager and I do not know who plugged this settings there. Suppressing the file and restarting NetworkManager cured all my troubles.
All the best.
