The first time NetworkManager attempts to contact dhcdbd for an $interface
that has not been configured under control of the current dhcdbd process, 
dhcdbd emits this message:  
  ... message handler not found under .../$interface
and returns an error to NetworkManager, which reacts by sending the 'UP'
message to dhcdbd to configure $interface.

These messages signify no problem and occur during normal operations - 
we should probably look into preventing their generation in a future release.
 
NM could use the dhcdbd 'list' method to list configured interfaces, before
asking for a possibly nonexistent interface option, which would avoid these 
messages .

The keyring error message:
 'WARNING **: Error saving passphrase in keyring'
does signify a problem - look into bugzilla and raise a NetworkManager bug 
report if no existing bug reports mention this issue.
