My knetworkmanagerrc file contains the CA certificate file path, but the editor UI shows it as a blank field. Using ifup/ifdown works perfectly, and NetworkManager has been broken for me since openSUSE 11.0. I was hoping things would work in 11.1, but no such luck, unfortunately :-(. When I have more time, I'll try to examine what is problematic about knetworkmanager on my Dell and HP laptops (they exhibit the same symptoms and use different wireless network adapters). I'll also comment in the appropriate bugs after doing that. Hopefully, I'll have some patches, too. I'm guessing the latest repository exists at http://websvn.kde.org/branches/extragear/kde3/network/knetworkmanager/ , though it appears to be very old. http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/hschaa/openSUSE_Factory/src/ appears to be the latest and greatest, though it also doesn't work for me. For what it's worth, I get the following errors in /var/log/NetworkManager when I try to connect to my network on my HP laptop, which uses TLS with a client certificate. It works perfectly with ifup/ifdown configured within YaST, but not so with NetworkManager. I turned off NetworkManager via YaST at the end of the log.

On my university, we use WPA-TLS with a client and root certificate and I'm unable to connect when using NetworkManager-kde either from the mentioned OBS repository or from openSUSE-factory. The certificate fields are always blank after saving the settings. I've also tried the Gnome nm-applet, it works fine. The problem is clearly inside the KNetworkManager. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
