Hi Peter, But If I don't have a configuration file, and I do not do "agent on", then connmanctl does not allow me to connect to any found access point (The standard NOT registered error)? What I see from config-format.txt, is how we can configure our basic, network settings, like names and passphrases.(Probably, because we don't have to enter them manually all the time ?? )
So if we provide this file, does it eliminate the need for "agent on" before connecting to an AP ?

I can see why other front-ends will need their own agents, but -ctl is only used standalone, is it not? -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen, / Best Regards, Sven Schwedas Systemadministrator TAO Beratungs- und Management GmbH | Lendplatz 45 | A - 8020 Graz Mail/XMPP: sven.schwe...@tao.at | +43 (0)680 301 7167 http://software.tao.at _______________________________________________ connman mailing list connman@connman.net https://lists.connman.net/mailman/listinfo/connman
