Like several people out there, I wanted to have user (non-root) scripts run when NM changed state.
I decided to write a quick python script to snoop the dbus, and call a function when an interface is brought up or down. Maybe somebody else will find this useful.
Instead of a director of scripts, just place a file called .nmdispatchrc in the home directory, containing python code which defines functions ifup and ifdown. e.g.
:def ifup(interface,*args)
print 'interface '+interface 'brought up'
:def ifdown(interface,*args)
print 'interface '+interface+ ' brought down'
The actual daemon is only slightly longer than the MIT license it is distributed under. You are looking at the only known documentation. You will need dbus-python
