today i found one package that certanly conflicts with
network-manager. i often wonder why interfaces show up and disappear
in the menu and why i got wrong ip numbers from my server. 

i thought the tool network-admin belongs to network-manager and tried
to configure stuff here which in fact changes the file
/etc/network/interfaces which in turn changes the behavior of
network-manager. 

running both may end into two dhcplients running configuring your
interface, the last one wins and probably gets the wrong ip number
from your dhcp server.

best regards, michael
