killall NetworkManager in Ub 9.10 and Ub 9.04

[Lee, Ju-hyoung]

You meant '%sudo service network-manager stop'?

Do you have any advice if we can rename this file to something else? What about the service removal option?

Thanks, 
Best Regards

In 9.10, Network Manager has been converted to upstart, so the
recommended way to stop it in that release and going forward is:

  sudo stop network-manager
