Package: network-manager
Version: 0.8.4.0-2
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch


Below is an example system-connection file I used in the recent weeks.
It seems to be good enough for practically anyhwere, even though it
only configures wifi (unencrypted, WPA2-psk and WEP).

As implied from the text, including the reference (settings-spec.html)
in the package would also be nice.


# The following is a simple NetworkManager system connection file
# Edit it and drop it over to /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections
# 
# Be sure to set the UUID for each new connections file.
#
# The NetworkManager daemon watched that directory (with inotify), so no
# need to poke it after dropping the file there.
#
# This file only includes some common options. For a full reference, see
# /usr/share/doc/network-manager/settings-spec.html .

[connection]
type=802-11-wireless
id=an_arbitrary_name
## You MUST create a new uuid. use the output of e.g. genuuid or 
## 'cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/uuid'. Be sure to recreate it after
## copying one file to another
#uuid=d126879a-fef8-4665-9aa8-4c55499221a5

[802-11-wireless]
ssid=the_bssid_of_the_access_point
mode=infrastructure

## Only enable this if the connection is encrypted:
#security=802-11-wireless-security

# Also be sure to set the proper values in the following section:

[802-11-wireless-security]

## WPA2:
#key-mgmt=wpa-psk
#psk=The Secret

## WEP:
#key-mgmt=none
#wep-key0=0011223344

The nm-settings-keyfile man page provides example configurations for
various use cases (ethernet, wifi, vpn)

This should sufficiently address this issue, so I'm closing this bug report.
