At work I use WPA authentication, and home I use WEP 128, at BLU meetings I use either MIT or JABR-NET unencrypted. While Network Manager does fail, I have found the most common cause it WPA-Supplicant. Prior to using NM, I used SCPM. SCPM has a few advantages over NM. One advantage of SCPM was that at HP I could configure a proxy server, but no proxy server elsewhere. I have not seen SCPM used outside of SuSE systems, though. -- -- Jerry Feldman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Boston Linux and Unix PGP key id: 537C5846 PGP Key fingerprint: 3D1B 8377 A3C0 A5F2 ECBB CA3B 4607 4319 537C 5846
