[opensuse-factory] Shared wifi connection asks for root password
Good morning, I feel the policy settings need some review....If you share a wifi connection between users (e.g., root has created it and allows everyone to use this connection), KDE asks every time for the root password before reconnection. According to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=359842 this is a problem with the policy configuration. I have created https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1061707 for this Additional, if you want to change your own password via the KDE control center, you have to enter the root password as well: https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1049142 Thanks for looking into this....

Last I inadvertently ran into this, if you then edited your shared connection
to be a personal connection, KDE continues to ask for the root password.
