I'm back. I've run into something. First, I stopped NetworkManager service, and then tried creating a simple wpa_supplicant configuration file, like so...
----- ap_scan=1 fast_reauth=1 network={ ssid="networkname" scan_ssid=1 key_mgmt=WPA-EAP eap=PEAP identity="username" password="mypassword" phase1="peaplabel=PEAPTYPE" phase2="auth=MSCHAPV2" } ----- Excecuted with: /usr/sbin/wpa_supplicant -ddd -i wlan0 -c wpacert-soms.conf -D wext As you can see I left out the certificate line. This did work successfully, if PEAPTYPE=0. (Type 1 did not work). I don't have any logs, but I'd be happy to post them if anyone would like to see. I then did the following steps in NetworkManager: 1. Selected "networkname" under the network menu. 2. Entered the same data from the conf file (MSCHAP, PEAP=0, no certificate). I then connected! Voila! This connection worked, although I had to click "Ignore" on the Don't Use Certificate question box. 3. Then, I opened up the connection ("Edit Connections"), and set the certificate for it in NetworkManager. 4. To top it off, I tried setting PEAP to Automatic. And then it connected again! Amazing. 5. I then restarted the computer, and logged back in. 6. NetworkManager failed to connection after several times. Wait. What happened here? It was just working. 7. I deleted the NetworkManager connection, and then re-selected the network in the menu. 8. I added the original settings (PEAP=0, no certificate) again. I connected again! 9. I opened the connection and set the certificate and PEAP to Automatic. And then it connected! Until I restarted my computer again... So this is my dilemma. Certificate+PEAP=Automatic doesn't seem to work on its own. However, if I try to connect to the network with PEAP=0, no certificate, then the connection is successful, AND subsequent connections (as Iong as I don't restart the computer) are successful with the certificate and PEAP=Automatic. This has happened consistently. Why does NM connect correctly with the certificate+PEAP=Auto, only after I've previously connected with NoCertificate+PEAP=0? If anyone has any debugging advice I'd be happy to follow it. _______________________________________________ NetworkManager-list mailing list NetworkManager-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
