Option to restart NetworkManager #118

Closed raffaem closed 1 year ago

Thanks for the thought, but I don't think I'm going to implement this for two reasons:

  1. I don't think it's in the scope of managing networks to be able to restart the underlying daemon. In my experience, if NetworkManager needs to be restarted, there's more going on and you may be on the command line anyways looking at the journal or other CLI outputs.
  2. Restarting NetworkManager requires root privileges that most folks won't use when running this script.

Appreciate the interest!
