My PC is currently (I'm using F17) configured to connect to internet using DSL (pppoe) over ethernet interface. I also configured same interface with static IP address for local network. My computer acts as a router for the local network. I used old system-config-network to create this configuration and disabled NetworkManager. In F20, it looks like using NetworkManager is unavoidable. But whenever I connect to DSL, it disconnects local network. Can I configure it to keep both networks over same physical interface? Also is it possible to connect to DSL automatically on startup even when no user logged in?
Thanks.

Why do you say that? Nothing's changed in this regard between 17 and 20 AFAIK. You can still use the old 'network' service fine.
Strange, I couldn't find how to enable or config it in F20 beta. Now I see that service exists, but I can't find any configuration tools for it. Were they removed? Anyway, thanks for good news.

Hum, it's possible s-c-network went away and I didn't notice, I don't really use it. The service itself should work fine if you hand-configure it or copy a config across from your old system, though.
Yes, I figured out that I'm going to keep ifcfg-* files when I upgrade. So far, it looks well. The lack of system-config-network confused me a little.

There's a setting for this in NetworkManager configuration tools, for each connection - where it is and what it's called depends which tool you're using. In nm-connection-editor I think it's the setting marked 'All users may connect to this network' on the General tab, but it's been a while. If you check both that and "Connect automatically" it should come up on boot.
