* Add group 'networkmanager' and implement polkit configuration
that allows users in this group to make persistent, system-wide
changes to NetworkManager settings.
* Add support for ModemManager. 3G modems should work out of the
box now (it does for me...). This introduces a dependency on
pkgs.modemmanager.
* Write NetworkManger config file to Nix store, and let the
daemon use it from there.
Logind sessions are more generally useful than for device ownership.
For instances, ssh logins can be put in their own session (and thus
their own cgroup).
Subtle: dhcpcd.service would call resolvconf during shutdown, which in
turn would start invalidate-nscd.service, causing the shutdown to be
cancelled. Instead, give nscd.service a proper reload action, and do
"systemctl reload --no-block nscd.service". The --no-block is
necessary to prevent that command from waiting until a timeout occurs
(bug in systemd?).
Ugly hack to get around the error "a string that refers to a store
path cannot be appended to a path". The underlying problem is that
you cannot do
"${./file1} ${./file2}"
but you can do
" ${./file1} ${./file2}"
Obviously we should allow the first case as well.
Enabled a bunch of units that ship with systemd. Also added an option
‘boot.systemd.units’ that can be used to define additional units
(e.g. ‘sshd.service’).
I remember the 'named' log was giving annoying messages on systems not ipv6
capable (I can't recall if lacking the kernel ipv6 code or unconfigured ipv6
addresses).

built for each machine.

interfaces black-listed for dhcpcd via configuration.nix. I use this option to
disable DHCP for "veth*" interfaces, which are created by LXC for use inside of
virtual machines.

lines below a certain marker. This is undesirable because commands
like "ssh-copy-id" add keys to the end of the file. Instead mark
all automatically added lines individually.

challenge-response is an authentication method that does not need the
plain text password to be emitted over the (encrypted) connection.
This is nice if you don't fully trust the server.
It is enabled (upstream) by default.
To the end user, it still looks like normal password authentication,
but instead of sending it, it is used to hash some challenge.
This means that if you don't want passwords to be used ever at all,
and just stick to public key authentication, you probably want to
disable this option too.

Comes with a default wpa_supplicant.conf, which gets updated through
aforementioned utilities.
