Feature changed by: Jakub Rusinek (liviopl) Feature #305657, revision 6 Title: finer grained PolicyKit support for Networkmanager openSUSE-11.2: New Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Ludwig Nussel (lnussel) + Interested: Jakub Rusinek (liviopl) Interested: Security Team (secteam) Interested: Stefan Behlert (sbehlert) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: NetworkManager currently only supports one PolicyKit privilege. That is whether a user is allowed to modify administrator defined connections or not. There is no way to disallow users to define their own network configurations. NetworkManager should at least support one additional PolicyKit privilege that defines whether or not users are allowed to bring their own network configuration or whether they mere are allowed to use administrator defined ones. Use Case: - disallow workers on centrally administered machines to configure different network settings - protect home users that only ever connect to a few well known nets from accidently changing their setup -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/?rm=feature_show&id=305657
