Title:
Lightdm asks for wireless password for eduroam on each start
Status in network-manager-applet package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System ->
About Ubuntu:
Happens on Ubuntu 14.04 amd64, Ubuntu 14.10 amd64
2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy pkgname'
or by checking in Software Center
uptodate 14.10 package
3) What you expected to happen
Save the password of the wireless eduroam (PEAP/MSCHAPv2 without CA
certificate) network when entered on lightdm
4) What happened instead
The problem I have is connected with my university's eduroam wireless
network. When I connect to it the first time I have to choose PEAP and
MSCHAPv2, when I want to save the connection it tells about the
missing CA certificate, so I tell it to ignore it. This works fine but
when I start up the system in lightdm I get asked to reinsert the
password of the eduroam connection, but even when I insert the
password and click on ignore the CA certificate message I have to do
this procedure on each restart of the system.
I'm not alone with this problem:

network-connection-until-after-login /
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager-
applet/+bug/1104476/comments/156 - So my problem is somehow related to
this bugreport ( https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-
manager-applet/+bug/1104476 ), when ignoring the CA certificate
message it will connect but not save the password at the login-screen.
So how do I get rid of this nagging request at each login?
A user on askubuntu.com told me to file a bug report (
