Could you try the attached package? It should fix the original issue
(when NetworkManager wasn't installed), but not the second issue (when
NetworkManager is installed but doesn't think you're connected when
you are).

Actually, it *does* add an option to syncdaemon that lets it ignore nm
completely; could you try that? But first you'll need to authenticate,
which is not done by syncdaemon itself. So, what would be great, would
be if you could test the attached package as follows:

* try to get everything running *without* having network manager, at
  all.

* then, install network manager, connect without it knowing, and check
  that the syncdaemon still connects (using --ignore-nm).

Thanks!
