Agreed.  The message is actually "You may want to restart your network 
and network services or reboot your machine".  Perhaps, in keeping with 
other items, there needs to be an "apply" button, or similar [ie, what 
is on say, the redhat-printer-config panel], such that the changes are 
more than saved, they are applied.  So, if there are any fedora 
developers out there....  Of course, this should (IMO) go into a basic 
UI design document for all of fedora "after market" tools.

Just my opinion, of course..
