Thanks for the hint. I found the page https://c-nergy.be/blog/?p=12073 which posts 2 possibilities for a similar problem on ubuntu. The unsafe way (set Allow_Any = yes) works, but the safer one (define file in /etc/polkit-1/localauthority.conf.d) not. I created afiler named 02-networkmanager.conf containing: --------------- cut ---------------- polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) { if ((action.id == "org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.network-control") && subject.isInGroup("{netdev}")) { return polkit.Result.YES; } }); --------------- cut ---------------- I looks to me that either the directory is wrong and/or the file name is wrong. Any ideas ? regards
