Package: network-manager Version: 0.9.8.0 My university campus uses the Eduroam (https://www.eduroam.org) standard for its Wi-Fi access points. I have saved my authentication details for this access point ujsing standard network manager and it connects automatically as such after a return from suspend. When booting the machine and getting to LightDM, however, I am prompted to enter my password for the Eduroam access point.
I stumbled upon this configuration file, which goes in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/eduroam: [ipv6] method=auto ip6-privacy=2 [connection] id=eduroam uuid=2fb6ac81-bb1c-44df-ba87-f0ec95e3d0d1 type=802-11-wireless timestamp=1349875620 [802-11-wireless] ssid=eduroam mode=infrastructure security=802-11-wireless-security [802-1x] eap=ttls; identity=<change this>@studserv.uni-leipzig.de phase2-auth=pap password=<change this> [ipv4] method=auto [802-11-wireless-security] key-mgmt=wpa-eap Mine was almost identical, but did not have the line which starts with "password". After introducing this line (and deleting two other lines that appeared in my configuration file but not here) now after rebooting "eduroam" does not ask for a password any more. So it seems that the bug is that after editing the connection in the NetworkManager GUI this password line is not saved in the system configuration file, if I understand correctly how nm works. -- Walter Garcia-Fontes -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
