Feature changed by: snwint Feature #303751, revision 3 Title: Support 802.1X Authentication on Wired Networks openSUSE-11.1: New Priority Requester: Desirable SLED-11: New Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: prusnak@novell.com Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: SUSE Linux does not support 802.1X authentication on Wired Networks. That means that users which need this feature have to install and configure it manually. What's even worse, users in authenticated environment cannot install SUSE from network. This feature consists of 3 tasks: 1) add suport to sysconfig/netcontrol (e.g. by calling wpa_supplicant - D wired -i eth0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_wired.conf in network scripts) 2) add support to NetworkManager (and its frontends - NetworkManager-gnome and NetworkManager-kde) 3) add configuration dialogs to YaST (during the installation and outside the installation - on running system) PS: Fedora Rawhide (equivalent of openSUSE Factory) already has working implementation in NetworkManager-gnome. I do not know about other tasks. + Discussion: + #1: snwint@novell.com (2008-04-30 11:01:48) + We already run wpa_suplicant during installation. Could you please + explain the difference to your proposal and what exactly needs to be + changed? -- SUSE Feature Tool: http://partnerfate.suse.de/?rm=feature_show&id=303751
