Graphical Network Configuration Tool[SOLVED]

Hello everyone I've been trying to install arch on my Eee pc 701 recently.  My prob is that there is no graphical network configuration tool to be found.  By the way, I'm currently using KDEmod 3.5.  Can you teach me please on the things to be installed?Thanks

Re: Graphical Network Configuration Tool[SOLVED]

Are you looking for something like NetworkManager perhaps?

You'll need knetworkmanager. Please issue the wiki for further configuration of NetworkManager.

I'm using gnome-network-manager since it is not included on arch official repositories. Btw, how can I show the nm-applet as a non-root user without asking the password? Also, since I do have this installed the thing I want is still not satisfied .  I want a graphical interface for entering static ip's, username and password similar to ubuntu's or windows xp.  ^^ Thanks alot

Re: Graphical Network Configuration Tool[SOLVED]

archassistant is a GUI for netcfg if I'm not mistaken. Netcfg is in Archlinux the preferred way to manage connections.
