CentOS - Oct 2013 - NetworkManager substitute??

I'm investigating how to setup KVM so I can run VMs without having to use
VirtualBox or VMware, or etc.

All the HOWTOs I see tell you to disable NM.

I use NM to manage VPN clients that I use for remote access to my office,
among other places.

How would I manage those VPN clients if I didn't use NM? I haven't found
any commands that appear to be suited to that purpose.

thanks!

Hi,

KVM/libvirt works just fine with NM enabled here. Never had a problem.
Just "yum install qemu-kvm libvirt virt-manager", start libvirtd and 
fire-up virt-manager, you're set!
