Good to know that the issue has been resolved. I really hope it
wasn't due to
switching your "wife definition". :-)
I don't think it was switching the wifi definition. The encrypted
definition is what I have always used, but it stopped working when I
changed the wifi router and adapter and the kernel wouldn't load the
adapter driver because of the compile options I used. Thankyou for
all your help.

Having just revisited this issue after rectifying the issue with my
wifi definition, it has resurfaced again with my two vpn definitions.
The two vpn definitions don't have the password recorded even though I
have specified it in the past. If I bring up knetworkmanager5 and look
in there the password is there, and if I transfer it into the vpn
definition in networkmanager and 'apply' it, select 'ok' to exit the
edit process, and then re-edit the definition, the password is not
there (this is the same issue I originally had with the wifi
definition), and then when I connect to the definition I am prompted
for the vpn password (I don't get prompted for the kwallet password as
I have pam-kwallet installed).
Do I need to change the definition from 'save password encrypted' to
'save not encrypted' to get the appropriate file created with the
password, and then change it back to 'save password encrypted' to get
the password retained (as worked with the wifi password issue)? If so,
why is networkmanager now working like this?
This is indeed what I had to do to get networkmanager to retain the
passwords. I had to change the password setting to all users to build a
config file with the password in plain text, then switch it back to the
current user mode to get it encrypted again and the password saved in
the definition, is this a bug in Networkmanager functionality?

Steve
